Why does my polaroid tv screen black out?

I turn the tv on and a few seconds later the screen goes black. It is a 16inch Polaroid flat panel Tv / Computer Moniter. I have my dvd player hooked up to it. I can hear the movie playing from the tv speakers but the screen is black. How can I fix this or where can I buy the exact item?

  • Back - light problem. Check and replace damaged component/s at its back-light inverter board, or replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. It will be best to replace the inverter board as card basis.

  • To some model sets; especially LED back-lighted types; the back-light inverter circuit will be part of the main power supply board [SMPS]. In such cases, the power supply board might need replacement. To some models sets, the back-light inverter and SMPS section circuit will be integrated at its main board itself. If so; the main board should be replaced. To some models of sets, all these section circuit will be integrated at its main board. If this is the case, you have to replace the main digital board.

SOURCE: remote code

Polaroid has the remote codes listed on their website. It is 1276 or 0150 if you have a Universal remote brand. (pretty common brand at a lot of stores.)

Polaroid TDX-02610B, Tv was working fine, turned it off, now when I turn it on it flashes polaroid then goes black.

If it is only the screen going black but the TV remains on and you can hear audio, then there is a problem with the backlight. It could be due to bad capacitors or it could be a faulty inverter. It requires repair by a competent engineer.
