Reoccurring audio problems

When TV is powered on picture will work but no audio. I reset the tv and sometimes it works and sometimes I have to reset 4 or 5 times ... If ever works. Over time the reset will not work at all and I will take to be repaired. The tv is about 6 or 7 yr old and this is the fourth time I've had these problems. Any suggestions other than foul language???

All TVs today are actually computers which also receive TV frequencies. The audio has to be decoded from the digital signal then goes to an analog audio amplifier. When you hear no sound with the picture do you hear anything coming out of the speaker? A hissing sound when the volume is way up?

If you hear a hiss then the amplifier is working but not getting anything to amplify. This could be due to a bad solder connection or a problem with the CPU and/or a switching circuit. Without a schematic I'm guessing here.

The bottom line is, there's probably nothing you can do to fix it unless you're used to dealing with SM (surface mount) technology and can touch up all solder connections from the CPU to the audio amp.

Whoever is fixing the TV should be able to tell you where you're losing the signal from the RF decoder to the amplifier as long as the problem is not before the decoder (which is probably all in software that the CPU runs.)

If the lamp has failed, don't fall for just paying big $$ for a new one from Misubishi. Instead, of buying their whole lamp assembly, just buy the bulb from me or many other sources on the net and install it into the assy yourself.

Hello Getoxygen,

This sounds like a DM problem. To repair this you will have to replace 4 or 7 capacitors (1000uf 35v).
Here are the instructions. Depending on your set this may differ a bit, but the central theme is getting the DM free to be worked on.

This was taken from a TV repair site used by TV technicians.

STEP 1) The DM Module loose. But itcan't be rotate out because of the upper plastic guide.

STEP2) How the DM Module is rotated out of the TV case. Allow thewires
entering the DM Module to be an axis point of the rotation.That way they barely move and don't get snagged or stretched.

STEP3) The DM Module out and the side cover of the metal housing removed.

STEP 4) My setup to do the soldering work.

STEP5) Up Close of the daughter board and the seven capacitors on

STEP 6) The daughter board unscrewed and flippedover where you will be soldering.

STEP 7) The UpperPlastic Guide that must be removed to rotate the DM Module out of theTV set.

STEP 8) Get this wooden horizontal shelf out (4screws) and getting the upper plastic guide out becomes easy.

SOURCE: Hello Need expert advice on

The 18 code does not exist. To read the code press device/input button and menu button at the same time on the tv. count the LED flashes 1st digit short pause 2nd digit long pause, repeats.

The red status lamp indicates there is no communication between the format board and the DMD board (light engine). The most common problem for this is capacitors on the Format board that require hours of labor and possibly sending the entire electronics package to Mitsubishi if the caps don't do the trick. Expect a very large bill, contact you local Mitsubishi Authorized repair facility about this, DO NOT take a chance on your corner repair shop to know how to accomplish this.

SOURCE: 50" Plasma turns off and back on without picture; audio stays on

Yes, you are correct. there are a few component issues on the power circuit board that will need to be replaced. the mani component will be the capacitors and transistors.if not repaired soon, this unit will completely stop working.

SOURCE: New bulb/TV still shuts down

Its far more likely the result of the power pwb capacitors that have failed. As the 34 code will appear if the capacitors fail on the Power PWB. You can get the V26 DLP Power repair kit at the following link.with free instructions

My Samsung TV stopped working - no picture.

If your Samsung TV UN43NU6900FX2A is not showing a picture and you hear a low noise squeaking sound when you turn it on, there may be several possible causes. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
  1. Check the power: Make sure that the TV is properly connected to a power source and that the power outlet is functioning properly. Try plugging in another device to the same outlet to confirm that it is working.
  2. Check the connections: Ensure that all cables and connections are properly connected and secure. Sometimes loose cables can cause issues.
  3. Reset the TV: Try resetting the TV to its default settings. You can do this by unplugging it from the power source for a few minutes, then plugging it back in and turning it on.
  4. Check for updates: Check for any available firmware or software updates for your TV. These updates can sometimes fix issues with the TV.
  5. Contact Samsung support: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you can contact Samsung support for further assistance. They may be able to offer additional troubleshooting steps or arrange for a repair or replacement.
If your TV is still under warranty, you may be able to have it repaired or replaced

Problem with Samsung led tv with no sound or picture.

The first things to try are of course the simplest. If you have a picture on your TV but no sound, the problem might be as simple as having the “Mute” button the remote having been accidentally pressed. Grab your remote and unmute the TV by pressing the “Mute” button again.
Next, check what the input setting is on your Samsung TV by hitting “Source” on the remote and cycling through the available inputs. If your Samsung TV’s source is set to a component that you don’t have set up, then there won’t be any audio data coming in to be played.
Do you ever use a headset on your TV? Gamers, in particular, might be using a wired set of headphones plugged into an audio out jack, and if the headphones are plugged in, then any audio is being routed to that equipment, and you might not hear the sound playing if you aren’t wearing the headset. Assuming you never use a headset on your TV, check the headset port for any debris. Your TV may pick up something in the port which won’t allow the audio to route properly.
Finally if this does not work,you can try the old school way...unplug the your TV for about an minute.

Samsung LCD tv - Turns on and off by itself.

Since you have another TV with the same problem you can try using an antenna(indoor model ok) to see if the cable is causing the problem. If not return TV before the warranty expires.

Menu not working.........

Resetting the TV
If the buttons on the remote AND the buttons on the TV case do not work (channels do not change and you cannot open or navigate the menu), the TV has stopped responding. Reset the TV as follows:

NOTE:
Some TVs have a reset button. If available and accessible, try using the reset buttons before using the steps below. Using the reset buttons can save time.

2. Unplug any connected devices (DVD, Set-top boxes, etc...)
3. Press and hold the TV power button for five seconds.
4. Plug the TV power cord back into the power outlet and turn on the TV.
5. Open the on-screen menu to confirm that the TV is responding again.

Audio not working on proscan ps61700

I have a GE 46 in TV that had the same occurrence. I believe it is a sign that the amplifier is overheated or stressed. The way I fixed mine was to unplug TV and leave off for a few minutes -then plug in. I discovered this by accident when the power went off one day and the sound returned (had been using my vcr audio output plugged into my stereo for weeks!) This fix will work for weeks-sometimes months-evidently resets the circuits inside the amp somehow. Last time this happened I also removed the back of TV and blew out the dust with compressed air while it was unplugged-still have sound 4 months later without a "reset"-so I'm guessing it did help .
