Mine did the same thing. Change batteries in the remote. If that doesn’t work remove the batteries and turn the TV on manually. If it stays on after the batteries are out of the remote it is a bad remote sending a false signal; weak battery can also cause this problem. The newer Samsung sets have a reset button on the back that also solve the problem,

Your over voltage circuits(hi-voltage and low voltage) are defective.When the voltage exceeds the specs it shuts off the tv.Unless your a service tech,you can't fix this.There are components on the main circuit tha t have to be changed.Sorry, no easy fix.

The telly comes on for bout ten minutes then makes a noise like a fan and turns itself off, do u know what causes this.

Hi there, I am not familiar with this tv in particular but I would start by looking around the back of the set for a cooling fan and check that the airway is clear, it sounds like an overheating problem.

Hope this helps.

3 YEAR OLD SANYO DP 32746. SHUT ITSELF OFF, CAN NOT TURN BACK ON

If you leave the tv unplugged for 2 days (atleast) then plug it back in and try to turn it on and if it comes on its the power supply board. If it comes back on it will probably shut off between 30min to 4hrs and you would have to unplug it for 2 days again. All the power needs to drain out of the tv. If thats the case take the back pannel off and check the part number out on the internet. Not hard to do becarefull touching things the power supply does store a little bit or shock in it. Good Luck.

The picture will go black and the sound will go out. At the same time, the green power inicator will flash. Then the picture and sound will come back on for several seconds and then it will go out again....

My TV had the same problem. I called Sony yesterday and they told me to reset the TV. I did so yesterday, and it seemed to work. Here is the transcript with instructions:
Please turn ON the TV. While holding down the RESET button on the Remote control, press the POWER button on the TV. The TV will turn itself OFF, then back ON again. Release the RESET button.The TV will go thru the initial setup, and should work normal.

Samsung HP-R5052 Plasma TV

It related with Power Board(50%) or Y-Main(50%).
But, if you use the power bar with surge protacton, need to check
the power bar's lamp when the TV is turning on & off.

Power light blinks, but tv won't come on

I have the 52" version of the Viera model. Mine went out last night and started blinking twice over and over again. I suspected overheating so i just went to bed and tried it in the morning with no luck. Then I unplugged it for more than ten minutes and plugged it back in and everything worked fine. I hope this helps.

This is bad. You need to either be under warranty on these big screen TVs or get the service manual. Especially since this is an off brand.
