The timer want let the tv come on. - Mitsubishi WD-60735 Projection Television

The timer is to shut the tv off not on that's why it's called a timer

Some tvs have a sleep timer on it and if it is accidently programmed the tv will turn off at a certain time. You may want to look at the users manual for more info. Or call a local place that fixs tv's for some more input before paying someone or getting a new tv. I had a tv once and it did the same think. I had to get into the menu with the remote and figure it out it had something to do with a set sleep timer so the tv would shut off at a certain time if the timer was set. It sucks if you dont have a remote though hopefully you do. Good luck. M Some tvs have a sleep timer on it and if it is accidently programmed the tv will turn off at a certain time.

If the TV timer is set within then it will restart in the same channel as when you connect the power to the timer the whole power is shut down and so the memory is lost on the last attempt. Hence the TV will start back on the default setting unless there is proper back up on the memory.Please check if the TV timer can be reset to solve this issue or the memory must be checked for fault to retain last settings.

Open following link to identify your timer

1) Don't expect the timer to turn on the TV picture.
I have my TV plugged into power strip.
Each night the power strip is off. When power strip resumes next day, the TV is READY to be turned on with the remote control. The picture does not pop up when the power strip goes on.
Same is true for timer.
Try your power strip and see if picture turns on after power strip is turned off-on.
Timer will work same as on-off switch on power strip.

2) Is the power strip interfering with timer?
Plug timer directly into wall outlet and see what happens.
Add a comment and let others know what happened.

3) Battery: Timer requires 2-hours for initial battery charge.
Battery back-up protects programs when power is off.
I don't know if battery is made for repeated on-offs if you turn off power strip each night.
These batteries are not replaceable however timer has 1 year limited warranty.

4) Plug lamp into timer and see if timer operates lamp. This will say if TV electronics are interfering with timer operation.

5) Load: This timer says it is for appliances, which implies it should be rated typical 15A 1800 watt

Sounds more like it's been set to do that. Use the following to shut off the timer mode. It's possible that the set is set to the wrong time of day but that is unlikely. You can shut off the timer mode using the on screen menu. Follow the instructions below.

Using the Timer Menu
Current Time Set your TV to the current day and time. Press to open the Current
Time menu:
1 Use the F or f buttons to enter the correct day and time, then press
.
2 Press to exit the menu.
Timer 1 and
Timer 2
Scheduled
viewing
Use the timers to program your TV to turn on and off by day, time,
duration, and channel. The timer duration is a maximum of six hours.
When the channel is fixed, it is not necessary to set the channel.
1 Use the F or f buttons to highlight Timer 1 or Timer 2, then press
.
2 Use the F or f buttons to enter the desired day, start time, duration,
and channel, then press . The timer status should be On when the
Timer has been set, and the timer light on the front panel of the TV
should be on.
3 Press to exit the menu.
? When you perform Auto Program, Timer 1 and Timer 2 settings will be cleared. Also, in the event of
any loss of power, Current Time, Timer 1, and Timer 2 settings will be cleared

The timer light blinking indicates a failure in the TV set. Either the vertical circuit or horizontal circuit has failed and needs repair. It actually has nothing to do with the timer circuit.
In my experience its probably a vertical output chip, smalla capacitor and zener diode. There may also be an open resistor.
Cost to repair in the 50-75 dollar range usually

Go to the menu and you'll find lamp timer section.

Setting the Sleep Timer The sleep timer allows your LCD TV to automatically turn OFF after a given amount of time. You can set the sleep timer using your remote control or through the onscreen display (OSD).
TO SET THE SLEEP TIMER USING THE REMOTE CONTROL
1. Press the SLEEP button on the remote control. The sleep timer appears at
the top of your screen.
2. Press the SLEEP button one or more times to select the time you want.
3. Press the EXIT button to hide the sleep timer display. Your sleep timer is now running in the background. The sleep timer will be hidden after 10 seconds.
Turning On the LCD TV.
1. Press the MAIN POWER switch in the back of the unit (see Back Connectors for location). The Status LED on the front turns orange
and your LCD TV is ready to turn on.
2. Press the POWER button on the front of your LCD TV or on your
remote control. The Status LED on the front turns green.

Nope sorry my friend the timer does not have a function to no let the TV set turn on, It only hhas a function to turn off the set. You have another problem with the TV set I bet you 100% Sometimes someone will use the timer funtion to have the TV set turn off and then at turn off or even turn on a componet fails and goes bad. there is no way a TV timer will prevent the TV set from turning on. there is most likly a problem in the TV sets power supply or the sweep power supply. Have it checked out by a pro and they will tell you the same thing. Good guess though, but it does not simply work that way, Sorry. Good Luck
