Troubleshooting

Most problems you encounter with your TV can be corrected by consulting the following troubleshooting list.

TV Problems

TV won’t turn on

Press the TV button or ON/OFF button while remote is in TV mode and there’s a source of power to the outlet or outlet strip.

Make sure the TV is plugged in.

You might have tried to turn on the TV during the lamp cool-down. Wait a few moments and the picture will appear.

Has the power light on the front of the TV been blinking for one minute? If so, the lamp may be dead. Refer to the Power indicator is blinking or flashing section below for more information.

When you first plug your TV into an outlet, the Power indicator on the front panel will light and blink for approximately 30 seconds and then go off during the initialization of the TV. This happens only when the TV is unplugged and plugged back in. The TV can only be turned on after the Power indicator goes off.

Check the wall receptacle (or extension cord) to make sure it is “live” by plugging in something else, such as a lamp.

Something might be wrong with your remote control. Press the POWER button on the front of the TV. If the TV turns on, check the remote control solutions on page 53.

Multiple TV Setup might be set to the wrong option. Press MENU/OK on the front panel. Select Setup Options, then Advanced Options, then Multiple TV Setup. Choose TV (default).

Power indicator is blinking or flashing

If the light blinks 5 times, pauses, and blinks again 5 times, the lamp is trying to turn on. If the TV doesn’t turn on after 5 minutes and then the light blinks steadily for one minute, one of the following options is possible:

Lamp door may be open. Face the back of the TV. Locate the door at the bottom of the TV and close it. Turn off the TV and turn back on. The lamp should turn on.

Lamp may be dead. Go to page 55 for lamp replacement information.

Buttons don’t work

If you’re using the remote control, press the TV button first to make sure the remote is in TV mode.

The front panel controls may be locked (disabled). Use the remote control to unlock the front panel controls by selecting the Front Button Block in the Parental Controls menu and choosing Front Buttons Unblocked.

Unplug the TV for five minutes and then plug it back in. Turn the TV on and try again.

TV turns off while playing

Sleep Timer or Wake-Up Timer may have been activated. Go to page 49 for instructions.

Electronic protection circuit may have been activated because of a power surge. Wait 30 seconds and then turn on again. If this happens frequently, the voltage in your house may be abnormally high or low.

Unplug. Wait five minutes. Plug in again.

TV turns on unexpectedly

Wake-Up Timer may have been activated. Go to page 49 for instructions.

Video and audio are out of sync

If you’ve connected a device, such as a DVD player, to your TV’s Video jack, and to an audio receiver using the audio jacks, you may experience a slight delay between the audio heard and the video seen. Connect the DVD player to the TV’s Audio jacks, then use the TV’s FIXED/VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUT jacks to connect to an audio receiver.

If your TV is connected to an audio/video (A/V) receiver or home theatre system via the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack, read the following information.
