TV acts like it is turning on then shuts off then repeat, repeat

I was watching TV and heard a loud pop thru the speakers, the cable box reloaded and the TV shut off. I tried to turn the tv back on and it acts like it is turning on a green light next to the power red light (labeled Timer rec) blinks a few times then the tv shuts off and repeats the process over and over without ever turning on (black screen). What the damage?

    Exactly the same thing happened to mine this morning; anyone out there have any updates on this. Did the TV work again or is it time to get in line for a new set at Best Buy?

When my lamp died the bulb literally exploded. That may be what you heard. Have you check the lamp? If the lamp is ok, the lamp's ballast or power supply might have blown.

Sound breaking up on tv. This includes Netflix. What is causing this?

Check your warranty (on TV). Call for support.

*** following is for information only.***
* Brand and Model for specific information.
* Pops, cracks, static on audio can be caused by;
* Blown speakers (most common). Volume turned up too high for speakers to handle power. Replace speakers. (test using a good speaker to confirm)
* Older amplifiers have problems with old style rotary knobs. Check and replace. (Though it may be better to upgrade to a digital TV with better audio.)
* Digital TV, including smart TV are still able to blow out speakers (and amps) if turned up to loud. Check warranty if the MFR will cover this type of failure.
* check the other audio outputs to other devices; IE VCR, Digital recorders, Head phones. Check the "line out" audio if signal is good.
* Following vids will go through other audio problems due to set up or connection issues:
* Trouble shoot (older) TV, Amp sets; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cF2w4T9vPDs
* connecting DIGITAL Audio cable using a sound box; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9i4IPUHrks0

LOUD BUZZING/HUMMING SOUND- CAN HEAR OVER AUDIO

have someone check speaker ground to the TV chassis. Your speakers are picking up reverb from the Video Signal.

Turns off after a few minutes

Sounds like a possible power short, especially if you have speaker cables connected to the receiver but not to speakers -- leaving the ends more likely to short (even via a single thin copper strand across a millimeter or two, when the voltage peaks). The receiver's message says "Check Spkr Cables," right? (They do mean the Speaker Cables!) Most receivers have a built-in power overload detection/protection shut-off circuit to save you from such mistakes.

I have BOSE speakers plugged into a small lcd tv. when the tv is off, I'm still hearing cable audio. why? i'll clarify. my tv has rca jacks connecting it to a couple of small bose speakers. sounds...

Your TV output is a pass-thru from the coax cable then. The only solution- turn the volume down, or unplug them.. Or get a cable box. A VCR may work as a temporary cable box, and if you have a remote for it, you should be able to just turn off the audio at any time with a VCR remote. (unless the VCR also has a pass-thru only audio output)

Tv went out after loud pop and has clicking noise does not turn on

If you have a Sony DLP, then the loud pop you heard is your lamp.  The lamps last approx. 4K-6K viewing hours.  Read your manual for replacement part number to reorder and very simple to replace yourself.

Sony Bravia XBR-2 32-inch LCD with popping noise problem

Has anyone heard of something like this where the cable box/service is causing popping sounds? yes & it is common problem. And is this something I should be concerned about causing damage to the TV's speakers? not at all. The Sony tech-support representative (over the phone) diagnosed it further to a problem not with the TV but with the cable box/service because there were no popping sounds when I played a DVD on my Playstation 2 that is attached to the TV. they are right that your problem is not due to tv. it is due to cable box/service? yes but not defective it reqires to change the way you have connected tv to cable.please call tech to get it connected in such a way so that you do not get popping sound when you you put off cable box.
