I tried to turn on my television this morning and It clicked like it was going to turn on then it shut itself off. I tried to turn it on again and it just wouldnt get any power. I waited a few mins and tried again and it started to come on but just clicked itself off again.
Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated.....with pie.

Have you tried hitting it with a blunt object? If that doesn't work, then I've got nothing other than buying a new TV.

I fix it by buying a new one.

Is it plugged in? If not, problem solved.
Done! Now it's time to solve the mysteries of cold fusion.

Have you checked the chords in the back to see if any of them have begun to fray?
Otherwise, I've got nothing other then hitting it. That's how I kept my old tv working for an extra year.

Sounds like your lamp burnt out and you need a new one. I had to do that with mine once, costs like 200 bucks. I got an awesome tv that I paid 2 grand for a few years ago so went ahead and fixed it.

Go back in time, if need be, and get enough of a warranty to cover it now.
Regardless, light it on fire and get a new one. And a pie.

Sounds like a lamp went out....if you paid a substantial amount of money you might have to fork out the ridiculous price for a new lamp otherwise it might be time to buy a new TV. Oh and get the extended warrantee too.

Sounds like the lamp.
Although by chance, is it a combo unit? Some of them have problems with sensors getting out of line. I have a TV like that. Luckily, I got it for free.

Oh wow ... After reading this thread, am I so glad that I got an Extended Warranty with my television. Not that I've had bad luck, but ...
Anyway, it may not be the lamp, it may be the power supply. I'm just spitballing here, though.

How exactly are you turning on the TV....with a remote, or the power button on the TV itself?
