Alba tv won't turn on stuck on stand by and it's whistling

The player has failed, it is not a product that is really repaired due to the low cost of a new one, I would just buy a stand alone player and right this off.

Hi Tony,
The power supply section of your tv seems to be having problem. If lucky, you may find some electrolytic capacitors responsible. Good luck.

Sounds like your power supply inside the unit is bad. What is the make and model?

My tv just over a year old Alba LCD32947HD - PSU - 17PW25-4 - 250111 V1 - 23012666 gets no power on and not even a light in front after I plug to the mains. Checked and power goes to the psu , main Av and the Inverter. Can somebody help? Could that be the remote control. Please help. Thank you in advance. Harry.

Not making it on or out of standby---first place to look is the power supply for signs of damage or puffed up filter caps there.

Digital processor section and T'Con board should be suspected.

Alba is now a product of Argos, their low cost help line number is 08456040105

hi all the black screen solution for me was this (this is assuming you have alba brand tvs and have the black screen BUT can still hear the sound) i after much fekkin around with it eventually found the solution in it (its the bloody backlight brightness in the settings you need to turn it from high TO LOW) ....... now this can be a bit tricky because usually when you have the black screen problem if u unplug the tv for a few hours and plug it back in you only get or should get probably like 30-1min of picture time before the picture goes black so u have to be reallllly fast with the menu button to get into settings before the picture dies (i learned the sequence for my alba lcd32880hdf) it was the following (for this part use the remotes arrows the one with the ok button usually in the centre of them) turn the tv on then click menu then press the up key 2 times then press ok then use the right arrow/button twice (although u cant see what ur doing ur navigating the menu hehe) then press the down arrow/button seven times before finally pressing the left arrow/button (once) <-- (now this bit may need to be done twice if you can remember setting ur backlight to max use it twice it will put it on minimum if in doubt only press it the once remember to totally power the tv off before repeating the steps to reset menus default posistions) remember thats the solution i found for my tv stands to reason (since i did infact buy another tv same brand different model which got the same problem) that this could be a solution for all alba tv users try it worked for me 2 times if ur not sure of the menu look up you tv models menu navigation online to find out the buttons you press gl hopefully it works for you too

count flashes...call tech support

have you tried running setup again? if not try it if you cannot get it to respond then you will need a mainboard replaced
