My mitsubishi ws 48413 tv won't turn on. it shut itself off and it won't go back on. when i press the power button, the light goes on, the tv makes a quiet clicking noise for a few seconds then goes out. no picture or sound or anything.
I have the same problem with my JVC AV-56P575 TV. When I hit the power button, the button light comes on for a few seconds, makes a clicking sound, then turns off again. What could this be?
Thanks for any assistance!
Have you considered that the electrical circuit you've got the TV plugged into does not have sufficient current to be able to supply the required amount of energy to the TV? It strikes me as odd that it's happening to both of those TV's with the same result.
Try plugging the TV into other outlets in other rooms. (Use a long extension cord to do this.) See if you get different results.
Please come back and report your results. Also give details on how old your house and/or electrical system are. (Or the best guess you can make.)
No rating for now, please.

Well... I kind of wanted to go over some basic troubleshooting procedures first...
But the convergence chip is a likely cause as night71 mentioned.
I don't like to discuss things like that until it's an issue. :)
Still waiting to hear back from you, though.

I think its a defective convergence chip/circuit and need a tech to replace it. It could cost about $300 or so.
