The power supply section is having trouble.
Common possibilities are:
- Convergences amps are failing, overloading the supply
- High-voltage section (flyback transformer) is failing
(happens sooner or later, about 8 years typical))
- One of a hundred of electrolytic capacitors has failed short overloading the supply. They dry out with age, are cheap to replace, but hard to find which one it is.
- Or any of many other possibilities.

In short, you need a experianced tech to troubleshoot this.

RCA projection big screen tv will not turn on lite blinks, power to tv is fine.

Check the power supply for electrolytic capacitors with the tops swollen. If you find these (should be either 2 or 4) replace them.

RCA BIG SCREEN TV WONT TURN ON HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!

Try unplugging it for about 30-60 seconds, then plug it back in and before you turn it on, make sure there is a good video source going to the TV either from Satellite/Cable or a DVD player or something.

If this doesn't work, try unplugging it a bit longer and then plug it back in and try again. If it still does not work, you may have to take it in and get it serviced.

Usually when devices power themselves off like that, there's something wrong...

I hope this helps :) Good luck!

Best Regards,

James

Rca big screen

Definitely try a power drain:

1. Unplug the product's power cable so that the device is not grounded to the house. Do not simply turn off the power-bar if one is in use.
2. Press and hold in the products power button for 1 minute to release the retained electricity from the capacitors and circuit board.
3. Plug the product back into the wall outlet rather than a power-bar to rule it out of contributing to the problem and turn the device back on.
If this doesn't help, the TV will likely require service for the mainboard. Since you are hearing a beep, the power supply must be trying to turn turn on but if the mainboard is shot, this is usually the outcome, good luck.

Power problem on a RCA big screen TV

Even with the tv turned off, the power supply is still active.It's supplying voltages to the microcontroler, that's why each time you press the power button on remote the tv respond by turning on. First check the power cord to be well connected in the power-bar and if it's ok...well the power supply is defective and due to the high risk of electric shock i suggest you to call a technicien.
P.S. I respond here because I don't know why our chat session got disconected.
