Question about RCA F36649 36" TV

Buzzing noise with no picture or sound.

My RCA 36" F36649 started making a buzzing noise and will not show a picture or produce any sound. When I unplug it the buzzing stops and them returns when I plug it back up. From reading some posts it sounds like maybe the power supply, so does anyone know how difficult it is to replace the power supply? Or could it most likely be something else? I've done some amatuer soldering and am willing to try repairing it myself, just not sure where to start. Would be greatful for any response.

Thanks Stargazer for the response. So do you think an amateur could repair this problem? If so any advice? Do you recommend any particular place for parts? Thanks again.

The power supply is telling you that it has a short. I think you have a bad high voltage transformer in the horizontal deflection circuit. I've repaired several RCA's with this very same problem. The newer RCA's are vert prone to high voltage transformer failure ! Stargazer

There is a short circuit in the high voltage circuit. the transformer who helps to create the high voltage or his power transistor is damage. replacement needed. the repair is not expensive, because the parts are average repair. Ask for an estimate.

Buzzing noise

Fly back transformer will cause a buzzing sound like this. Really up to you how bad it bothers you it can be fixed but it will cost a couple hundred dollars. If you can solder you can put it in yourself but the flyyback will still cost a little bit of money.

Buzzing noise, sound but no picture

It sounds as if the lamp needs to be replaced. The buzzing sound you hear is the ballast attemting to fire the lamp.

Smoke coming out of tv, and bad, burning plastic smell The picture is a bit 'stretched' out, and sometime screeen 'quivers' or 'flickers'. This has been happening for some months, but yesterday, the tv was on for several hours, and by afternoon, we smelled a horrible, plastic burning smell, and saw light smoke coming out from the top of the tv somewhere. We unplugged it, and have done nothing since.
