I have a Mitsubishi HD1080 television. All of a sudden, when I try to turn it on, it turns itself off after about 2 seconds... not even long enough for the picture to appear. The green light comes on, but then turns off after 2 seconds. Any ideas?

The power supply board has a problem on it. If the TV is 10 years ols or older it may be cheaper to get a flat screen than to pay to fix it.

Flashes of standby lights are fault indications. Visit the site named "Electro-help' for details. Check this link, and select the site named above.

Try to unplug set and try it again as if the set was unplugged and then the self check done it will be 1,2 which means NO ERROR detected.

Let me know also what the set does?

Ok, try this first. After attempting to turn on set after it shuts off push and hold the MENU and INPUT buttons at the same time on the front of the set for 10 seconds. This should acccuate the self diagnostics function in the micro and the power LED should start blinking a two sequence code. That code will narrow things down.

Try to get a firmware update. THis happened to me and I got a firmware update from Mitsubishi and now all ok. Call Mitsubishi

is it like a double image kind of thing?i dont know what 'red streaks' are....

I had the same problem and fixed it by disabling the front buttons through the menu.

Try to access the self diagnosis feature, by pushing the input/device and menu buttons in on the set itself and hold them both in together for 8 seconds to see if the led will blink a two digit code. If it doesnt that means the processor isnt powered so therefore its a standby voltage issue thos are usually easy to track down Try the proceedure to access the diagnosis feature then let me know the results.

Check to see if all the fans are running. The fans are needed to cool the engine off while it is running. Double check the fan for the DMD board for this fan is a common problem.

First do a self test diagnosis. you can search Mits tv or read my solutions.
