My polaroid TV will turn on but there is no picture or sound

When I turn my TV on, the blue power light comes on but no picture or sound. When I then try to shut it off, the remote won't shut it off nor the power button on the side. I have to unplug the power cord and plug it back in. After I do this several times the TV starts working.

Blue LED light comes on but nothing else happens when turned on

It can be the main board or the power supply, look at the power supply first since it is easier to get to, look for burnt parts, bad capacitors, etc.

POLAROID TLA-04011C does not turn on

The most likely the TV has a power supply related problem or it maybe just a blown fuse inside the TV.
I can't say it's 100% the problem because I can't actually look at the tv over the internet.
If by some chance the TV is still under warranty, go that route.
If not under warranty and If you have some electronic experience, you can purchase a Service Manual over the internet and diagnose the source of the problem and fix it by soldering in the new part. The Service Manual will give you circuit diagrams, test points, and part# lists. Usually, cost under $20.

I hope I shed some light on the subject for you.

Sound but no picture.

It sounds like it is the picture tube. The same thing just happened to me. The back of my television started smoking and then there was no picture.

Hi,
Symptom shows that Mani Board is bad in your TLX-03210B Polaroid TV and need to be replaced. I do not see problem of capacitors in power supply board. Problem seems in system control section of TV that is located on main board.
Click Shop Jimmy as it is best source to obtain boards of LCD TVs.
Please call Shop Jimmy for main board availability as currently its out of stock.

Thanks.
