Poloroid flm-1911 after 1 minute the tv powers off

Hi:

I have a Poloroid flm-1911 and after about 1 minute the tv screen goes blank, but I still hear the audio. I tried using different inputs, but still the same problem exists. This tv is about 1 year old, and is used lightly. It has never been dropped, nor hardly moved, except for cleaning.
If i press the power button, wait 5 or 10 seconds it goes back on then losses the picture in a minute or less.

Any ideas or suggestions?


Thanks, Mike

    I have the same problem with a 32-inch Sharp Aquos - started when TV just over 1 yr old. Thank goodness for extended warranty this time! Problem was very intermittent and could be "solved" by unplugging TV for about 20 minutes to reset the processor. Had it "repaired" at the time - main circuit board was replaced, but still had the problem. Finally sent back to repair shop as problem became more frequent. Now they say we need an inverter board. After researching "inverter board" on Internet, I realize the repair shop should have known this the first time we took it in!!! What idiots! Temporary tip: We found that turning off TV, hitting it (no kidding) near the power cord somewhat firmly but not TOO hard, would usually restore the backlight!

Poloroid 32" flat screen

Yep! If under the 1 year warranty get it in right away. If out of warranty then it's possibly a power supply issue. Probably a $100 to 200 dollar repair.

If you have a cable box connected, it's synch circuits are bad. If your TV has a selection for HRC/ IRC make sure you know which one cable company is using .

Pink screen

When the "pink screen" happens on my Polaroid FLM-1911 TV, I unplug the power cord from the back of the unit, wait 30 seconds, and replug it. This fixes the problem.
