Hello,

I am by no means an expert but i have the same type of TV and have a similiar problem, first I thought it might be a heat-induced effect so I vacuumed the interior but no joy--then I carefully inspected the main board and found two components that looked melted. So I would suggest you vaccum the interior and then inspect. But be careful as I found one capacitor on the board that still had a charge after 3 days of the set being turned off, you might want to verify things with a multimeter before poking around.

My set is plugged into a cable box. the tv will not turn on either manually or with the remote.

Plug the power cord directly into a wall power outlet, and make sure that the standby light is lit (turn it on/off manually to see if anything changes). If there isn't any light, then it's most likely broken.
If the TV works again, being plugged into the power outlet in the wall, then the problem is with the cable box (i bet you figured that out too).

Tv won't turn on

Are you using a remote, or try to turn on manually. If your remote does not work, it needs to be programed to your t.v. And all remotes and t.v.s have different codes. Sometimes your cable provider will help you program your remote, or reset your cable box. My remote for my cable was not programmed, so I had to read the instructions myself to get the remote to work with the cable box channels.

I turn on the cable box and the tv and about 1 minute to 4 minutes later the tv short circuits and turns off. The cable box is still on. The cable company came to change the box and the cables but it...

Sounds like there is too much voltage going into the same outlet. Please keep in mind cable boxes as well as your tv hold a higher amount of voltage then your dvd player. If your tv is plugged into the back of your cable box, unplug that and just plug it directly into the wall. If not, get a power strip and plug it in that way.

It can Have one of 2 Troubles, The Inverter Board is Defective or the Power Supply has bad Capacitors. I found 3 Capacitors known to go bad in that set. Replace the 10 Volt Capacitors with 16 Volt Caps and they will last forever.

I have a Sharp 32 inch 720p tv, power works, no other buttons do

Unplug TV set from the outlet, wait 30 seconds, plug it back in, select right input with your remote if you using cable box or Punch the channel that you want to watch if you have cable service connected directly to the TV.

Not programmed

It is not picking up signal. Look on your remote for a button marked tv/video or inputs. Try to switch back to rite input or your sat or cable box has failed. Try another tv to see if you get pix
