Polaroid Televison & Video - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

HDMI or VGA through the video out socket. I expect the USB will not support other than updates but no longer as it is too old.

the model you listed will not do anything with the usb port, except maybe charge connected devices. The usb port is not an input. Its only purpose is for troubleshooting and factory service.

Question moved from Cars and Trucks category. It is most probable that there is a failure on the power supply board inside the TV. Commonly the capacitors on this board will receive a surge and then fail. They can sometimes be visually verified by removing the rear of the set and inspecting them for bulges or leaking fluid at the top or the base of the caps.Nov 6, 2011

Our Polaroid TV's on/off light keeps blinking between red & blue.

If your Polaroid Roku TV is working fine but the red light is continuously flashing, it could indicate an issue that may need attention. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

1. Power Cycle:
   • Turn off the TV and unplug it from the power source.
   • Wait for at least 5 minutes.
   • Plug the TV back in and turn it on.
2. Check Remote Control:
   • Ensure that there are no stuck buttons on the remote control. Press each button to make sure they are not stuck in the pressed position.
3. Update Firmware:
   • Check if there is a firmware update available for your TV. You can usually find this information in the TV's settings menu.
4. Reset to Factory Settings:
   • Perform a factory reset on your TV. This will erase your settings, so be sure to back up any important information first.
5. Check for Physical Obstructions:
   • Make sure there are no physical obstructions around the TV, particularly around the infrared sensor on the TV and the remote control.
6. Contact Customer Support:
   • If the issue persists and your TV is still under warranty, consider contacting Polaroid customer support for assistance. They may be able to provide additional troubleshooting steps or offer a solution.
7. Professional Repair:
   • If the TV is no longer under warranty and the issue persists, it might be advisable to consult a professional technician or a TV repair service to diagnose and fix the problem.

Always refer to your TV's user manual for specific instructions related to your model. If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it's recommended to seek assistance from the manufacturer or a qualified technician for further diagnosis and repair.

MY polaroid smart tv has narration voice on it and I don't know how to turn it off

From a previous post and an answer from our Television Expert Larry, normally not worth repairing Polaroid televisions are made in China and are not made with quality components. Wow, they are only $239 new, what quality can you expect? His advice was to replace with mainstream brands like Sony, LG or Samsung.

First is a link to a codes page. Next is a description of programming the device. The code page strikes me a little confusing about the method so that is why I provide the description of programming. Polaroid TV Universal Remote Codes & Program Instructions - Universal Remote Codes

1. Turn on your Polaroid TV.
2. Press and hold the SET button on your SANSAI URC-L969 universal remote until the LED light turns on.
3. Enter the 3-digit code for your device using the number buttons on your remote. If you don't know the code, try searching for it online or contact the manufacturer of your device.
4. Release the SET button once you've entered the code.
5. Test if your remote is working by pressing some buttons like volume up/down or channel up/down.

Search for your TV model's official app or a universal remote app that's compatible with your TV.

You can't unless it has a 4 way directional pad with enter in the centre. https://www.fixya.com/support/r29872378-universal_remotes_no_facsimile_remote ..

There would not be a way to " turn it up more" chances are something is bad in the audio output circuitry, this is part of the main board, or your set may be an all in one set where there is only one board in the TV. A new board should fix the set.

If you are using the standard SNES cables with the round red, white and yellow 'Jack' plug connectors they are referred to as "Component" connections. On your remote there should be a button marked "COMP". It will probably be near the top of the remote near the Power button. This should switch the TV to the channel you need.

If your Polaroid PDX-0758 DVD player is displaying "open" even though the lid is properly closed, there are a few potential solutions you can try:

1. Check for obstructions: Make sure that there are no objects blocking the DVD tray or preventing it from closing all the way. Even small objects like dust or debris can interfere with the DVD player's operation.
2. Reset the DVD player: Try unplugging the DVD player from the power outlet and waiting a few minutes before plugging it back in. This can sometimes reset the player and clear any errors that might be causing the "open" message to appear.
3. Clean the DVD player: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the DVD player and remove any dust or debris that might be interfering with the player's operation.
4. Try a different disc: Sometimes, a specific disc might cause the "open" message to appear. Try playing a different DVD to see if the player operates normally.

If none of these solutions work, there could be a more serious issue with the DVD player's hardware or firmware. In this case, you may need to contact Polaroid customer support or a certified repair technician for further assistance.

Does it do it everywhere, even in the middle of a field? If it does, contact Polaroid for a warranty replacement. If it only does it as home or in the car it is picking up interference. Not much you can do, as these are at the budget end of the scale.

The issue you're describing with vertical lines in the picture and a color imbalance on your Polaroid TV (model 3200) could be caused by a few different issues. Some possible solutions include:

1. Check the TV's cable connections: Make sure all cables (e.g. HDMI, AV, power) are securely connected to the TV and the source device (e.g. cable box, DVD player).
2. Adjust the TV's settings: Check the TV's picture settings (brightness, contrast, color) and make sure they are set correctly. You can also try resetting the TV to its default settings.
3. Check for interference: Ensure that there are no other electronic devices or appliances that may be causing interference with the TV's picture. Move the TV or other devices a few feet away from one another to see if the problem persists.
4. Check for a faulty cable or source device: Try connecting the TV to a different source device or cable to see if the problem persists. This can help determine whether the issue is with the TV or with the cable or source device.
5. Check for a hardware issue: If none of the above solutions work, the issue could be caused by a hardware problem with the TV. This could be a problem with the TV's screen or the circuit board. In this case, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a repair professional to have the TV serviced.

Please note that the age of the TV, if it's been dropped or mishandled, or if it's been exposed to extreme temperature changes or moisture, could also be a factor in the problem.
