Hi,

This could be a setup issue or it could be a fault within the TV. Unfortunately your description does not contain enough information to determine which. It could also be a faulty remote control.

Please switch the TV off, remove all cables (make note of where they connect first!) and then unplug it for at least 5 minutes. Then re-connect the cables, switch the TV back on and then try the following tests.

1. Press the "POWER" (ON/OFF) button on the front of the TV. It's possible that the TV is in "Standby" mode and the remote isn't working.
2. Does the on-screen menu activate when you press the "MENU" (M) button on the RCA remote?
3. Does the on-screen menu activate when you press the "MENU" button on the front of the TV?
4. Do any of the buttons on the RCA remote or the front of the TV have any effect?

Finally try pressing the "INPUT" (IN) button repeatedly on either the remote or the front of the TV as you may have simply switched the TV to an external input mode, e.g VCR/DVD.

It will be much easier to solve this problem if you still have the RCA remote that was supplied with the TV. If you don't have it, please can you let me know which remote (brand and model number) you are using for the TV and whether you have been able to verify that whichever remote you are using is actually working.

If you can try these things and post back with the results, I will be able to assist you further.

Parece existir algum problema na Fonte de Alimentaçao do TV. Provavelmente capacitores eletroliticos deficientes. Quanto ao cabo USB service voce teria que possuir o programa de fabrica para ajuda-lo na pesquisa do defeito. Se possuir conhecimentos tecnicos verifique a FONTE.

You could try to go into the settings and use the "Image Cleaner" option. That's what we do with our tv. But i'm not sure if it will work with yours... (:

You need to do some troubleshooting to narrow down the problem first before buying the correct parts.
You need to inspect the power suply caps and DC output voltages.
It can be power supply, main board, backlight inverter boards shorted out and caused the TV to go into safety shutdown.

Learn about bad caps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague

Capacitors kit: http://lcdalternatives.auctivacommerce.com/ he can make you a set of caps for you. Or www.digikey.com just make sure to use caps with low ESR, 105c, high ripple current, long life rating such as PANASONIC FM or FC series

Most of these will. You san see the screw mounts on the back of the set and compare them the wall mount spand holes. I have mounted 19" RCA LCD Panels so I have got to believe this 32" should be able to mount on most universal wall mounts.
I hope this helps,

If you have the remote, there should be an input or source button it? Also, check the buttons on the TV for an input/source button. If there isn't one on the TV buttons, try cycling through the channels, some TV's have the inputs change with the channel buttons too, once cycled down through the channels, it will go through the inputs before starting over.

Hi, my name is John. Welcome to FixYa. Put the TV on channel three or channel four. Thanks for choosing FixYa....John

Tries websites like Partstore.com,Amazon.com,Ebay.com to buy all tvs mdoels a/c power cords.

the problem with ur tv is the power supply u have bad capacitor on power supply

No,by replacing the LCD screen panel,will cost the same as a new tv.Because u will not able to buy the LCD screen panel anywhere else,but by the tvs corporations themselves.Tv LCD or any picture screens for that matter are in limited in productions.Sorry ur tv now,dosen't worth as a whole tv anymore.Now,it only worth as a salvages tv for it electronic boards for spare parts,that it.

I finally found an RCA Universal Remote model RCRN04GR 4 in 1 that works with this TV and easy to set up.

Check all your input cables. If RF coax, make sure they are just beyond hand tight. If RCA, twist each a few times to burnish (clean) connections. This is especially true if you are doing Component viodeo (Red, Green & Blue).

Sounds like the power supply has filtering issues, in other words bad capacitors. its best to have a tv shop take a look at it. they shouldn't charge you. good luck

Is there any power on the power light?

Thank you,
