Hello TRH12300, there is a few things missing to be able to completely answer your question, for example when the TV goes black can you still hear the audio? What is the color of the power indicator light at the bottom of the screen? What is the model # you are talking about. This could be several thing with the most common one being the inverter board but with out knowing the model # I cannot tell you if it is a LIPS (power/invert board), inverter board itself, or it can also be the T-Con board or the main board. What I can do is please send me an email answering all the questions asked here to [email protected] so I can help answer your questions and get your TV back up and running in no time. Also once we are done please rate my answer.

Sound stays on, but no picture- goes black and stays that way.

This unit should still be under warranty and should be taken in for warranty service. Any attempt to access the interior will void the warranty. It is important that a complete description of the problem like you entered here be taken along when you bring the set in for service. This will insure that the servicer be able to reproduce the problem and resolve it.

From your description (and as a servicer), I would be looking for a component that is heat sensitive. These types of problems are fairly easy to locate and resolve.

Please take this in for warranty service and update this when you find out the details.

Thanks,
Dan

Westinghouse model tx-47f430s lcd tv wil not turn on

This is known as SLEEP MODE problem.

Simple solutions:
1. Get a power surge protector / strip.
2. Plug your TV power cord to the power surge.
3.Then turn-on your TV using the remote control. Just in case it won't go all the way to normal state.
4. Turn-off the switch of your power surge like 5 times with an interval of 3-5 seconds.
5. Then repeat step 3 and 4.
6. These step is done to over-ride the sleep mode.

Westinghouse SK-26H520S turns on but wont go past start-up screen

Hello, two things, one if the unit gets stuck there meaning that the W stays there and it shows that on the screen thank your main board is stuck on the boot mode and you will need to replace. The second is if the W goes away than you need to see if you can plug something in and change the input mode (even if you can't see anything on the screen) so that you can see if there is any sound coming in to the unit. If this is the case than you are looking at dead inverter board. If you would like to further troubleshoot than please email me at [email protected] for further assistance. If this information was useful please rate me on this webpage.

My LCD HDTV screen keeps going black.

There are two places to look for the problems, the backlight inverter board and the power supply. Look at the power supply first since it is easier to get to, look for burnt parts, bad capacitors, etc.

Flat screen goes into what appears to be high speed horizontal roll after 5-10 minutes of use. If left on, screen eventualy goes black. Sound stays on.

The video processor is having some issues. This is not likely an LCD Panel problem.

Since it is after 5 minutes it is probably cold solder. My guess is the video processor will be a fairly large IC with a big Heat Sink on top (or some other cooling method)

LTV-27w7 blackscreen

Have you tried unplugging overnight? Sometimes mine gets screen garbage and that clears it up. Of course, now it says "Auto Scan Required" every time I power up. Maybe I should've grabbed that after Xmas 32" at Fry's for $400.
