Question about RCA F36649 36" TV

2 Answers

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

How much would you sell a 36" tv for
Hi iglidewell
In the last 7 years the price of plasma and lcd tvs has dropped quit a bit, so that makes it a popular choice.
But there are still die hard fan for the tube types, so you could ask from around $150 to $200 for it, or a quick sale at a 100 bucks.
Merry Christmas
P.S please do not rate this answer(unless it helps) since this is only a suggestion.

When my rca 36F530 tv is plugged in it makes a high pitched buzzing noise picture does not come on
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.

I had this happen. (ontop of the button board infront shorting out). I took the back off, and if your looking at the screen it'll be on your right. There is a metal box with two ribbons coming out of them, I unplugged both and plugged both in, and now she turns on without any issues. Not sure why, but it works. Now if I could get some help finding the circut board with the front buttons on it. I.e channel up down and volume.

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.
