Polaroid FLM 3232 Color problem

I have power, but no picture. All I see when I turn on TV is multi-color vertical lines. No images or sound. Looks as if bars and tone have taken over complete screen. Any ideas?

Maybe power supply, color wheel or capacitors?

Help!

Thanks

If you typed in the right model number this is a LCD TV and won't have a color wheel...Check all the power supply voltages and see if they're all ok, if they are I'd replace the main board and see if that fixes it since you don't have sound or picture

I can only tell you what I found out. There is vertually no documentation supporting this product to componant level, so I just had to wing it.


I had no power 24VDC from CN2 or CN3. I figured the problem was a switching problem,

So I replaced two Diodes D7 and D6 (They are in the mid board area and real close to each

other) I also replaced the two electrolitic caps 10UF 50V that are in the same area just
because I was in the mood to change out parts. (I changed em with 10uf 35V) the diodes

were also changed with parts I could get D6 I changed with a 276-1102 and D7 with a

276-1114 Radio Shack. I know that they are not the correct values, but I was in a hurry


and just wanted to see if I could some it and get it off my table. Well Low and Behold''


it sturned on, and has been working. I cant say this fix will help you, but if that other

harolded fix does not work for you, then try mine. worst you can do is Blow it up. I really

Should have taken the time to order the correct parts, but after pulling my hair out for two

days trying to find a schamatic for that stupid power supply I guess I got depressed. I knew it had to do with the switching on of the power, but so many things can do it. I just hoped it out be those swistching diodes. If you do want to try this, go ahead and remove the componants and order
the correct ones. and GOOD LUCK.

Most likley it is the main processor on the main board..You cannot replace this processor.Go to shopjimmy.com and see if they have just the main board.

My polaroid flm 3232 is 4 years old when I turn it on I get loud screeching and and popping sounds plus the picture is a color pattern. Can you help me?

Same thing happened. I unplugged it and everything for a couple of days then turned it on. Went to the menu and put reset to default. The V chip was then activated. If that happens to you too try 8202.

I have polariod flm 3232 My problem is power comes up but no picture and sound when press the power button

it looks like the problem that you are having is coming from your video board this is the board that gives us the digital image if this board is bad the main board could detect that there is a problem and blocks it's self that is the reason you don't even get sound

Sound but no picture.

It sounds like it is the picture tube. The same thing just happened to me. The back of my television started smoking and then there was no picture.

Have you checked out the HDMI cable? A composite cable failure can cause the same.
