The volume turns down by itself when we are watching tv. What else can be done?

The volume turns down by itself. If I try to turn up again it just goes back down by itself again. I tried unplugging tv but it just does the same thing over again.

Take the batteries out of the remote or cover the IR emitter to determine if the remote volume button is the problem. If not then check the button on TV utself to make sure it's not stuck

SOURCE: TV Turns Itself Off

That set is a CTC197 chassis with a common problem - flyback or more commonly referred to as the FBT...
The FBT is a high voltage transformer which delivers a great deal of voltage to the crt to light the tube. The FBT is RCA p/n# 237502 and a ring test can confirm its failure. Another shortcut technicians use is to unsolder the collector of the HOT and power the set. If it powers with up and has audio you're in business, just replace the FBT and it's recommended to replace R14704 its an 82k ohm- 1/2w resistor and C14710 a .01/1kv cap as well. I believe if you order these as a kit, (ie: original RCA FBT), the two other parts are included - but ask to make sure.
You might also check for continuity across E & B of the HOT with a multi-meter while you're in there and if you get any resistance at all the HOT is shorted also... Or for simple reliability just replace it anyway.
Hope this helps!

SOURCE: 65S500 will not turn off

Check to see if you have it set to do the Magic Focus on turn-off. It is in the menu under setup.

SOURCE: ViewSonic N2750w 27 in Volume turns down by itself

Could be a problem with the down volume button on the tv. the board it's on ir its harness. Check them all. Make sure the volume buttons plastic actuator moves freely and is not stuck.

If these parts are all good, you have a problem on the main board. You may have to trace the control lines as far as you can and check any capacitors along the way. If you have an oscilliscope you can test the lines to see if the up volume is working correctly. If there is noise on it, you might find a bad capacitor if you can trace it back far enough. Schematic helps here.

Of course, make sure nothing is shining on the sensor window on the TV. You might want to scope that line as well (IR sensor line).

If none of that helps, get hold of Viewsonic and find your closest service provider. You can order a main board from them.

Of course, you could try just using the audio out jacks to an amplifier or a surround sound amplifer. Then you would use the remotecontrol for the surround sound system to control your volume.
Bet you were going to buy one anyway right?

I have a Mitsubishi 73"

i would suspect your control buttons on your front panel on the set have become shorted. specifically the volume buttom down. This is freezing you control functions. like someone is holding the volume down button all the time. or intermitantly. this cuircit board is on front of the set. I have seen this problem a few times at the shop. The common repair is to replace that button assembly cuircit board. I believe the last time it cost the customer around 85 dollars, but like all things depends on the part and the technician that puts it in.

We are watching tv and the volume just turns itself all the way up. If we turn it down, it goes right back up. It stays like that for about 15 min at a time and then it will allow me to turn it down until...

check the remote control, take the batteries out and try to adjust the volume on the tv set itself.
If this resolves the problem the button on the remote may be sticking, either clear it or get a universal remote.

If you still have the problem without the remote then its time to take the tv to a repair shop or claim on a warranty.

Samsung lcd 32 inches screen. The volume turns down to zero by itself. The remote control looses control. Control through remote control keeps coming and going intermittently.volume can be turned up...

Try removing the batteries from the remote after you set the volume, just to determine if the remote is causing the problem or not. I have seen stuff spilled on remotes and they just go crazy.

Volume goes all the way up by itself

1. The volume up button on the remote may be stuck down- try wiggling the button to get it out. If it isn't the remote if the local volume control is in fact two buttons perhaps that one is stuck in or damaged.

2. The dvd sounds like it needs a new laser unit- a worn laser unit may play up like this.
It might be time for a new one as replacement can be sometimes more than the cost of a new one nowdays!
