Nice

DIGITAL TELEVISION. You can receive over the air TV. An input selection . Set this mode and scan channels........only if you have rabbit ears connected to the coaxial connection on back of TV. Free TV to watch. Thanks for asking, Matt of Martins TV.

Have a look on either the side or back. It looks like a USB but a different shape. If the TV is really old it may not have one

Am I understanding this right, the light in the living room, like ceiling light or a light hooked to an outlet flickers when you try to turn the TV on?

The main power supply regulator section circuit fault. Either it will be a separate board, or the part of main board. Check and replace damaged component/s at its main power regulator [SMPS] section circuit. Contact any service technician. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts. https://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ It will be best to replace the power supply regulator board as card basis rather than making "Surgery" to it; which usually will make loss for both money and time. Even though you can make it right, it will cost around an amount equal to the cost of a new board; including the cost of (spare parts + service charge) More to say, most of the spare parts to it will be difficult to get from open electronic spare part market. This is true to most of the flat panel TV power supply boards; irrespective of its brand and screen size.//

u can get a remote on ebay or amazon an dthe reason for no sound is usually the hdmi cable or resetting the receiver not having sound is a common issue with satelite see the link below https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how-to-troubleshoot-a-dish-network-with-no-sound http://rochesterfixmypc.com/

Could just be a bad cable. Try replacing them with new ones.

If your comfortable remove the back cover and I'm sure you will find a blown main fuse, you can replace it but chances are it will blow again, a new main board should fix it or if your tech savvy you can troubleshoot it yourself, it should be an easy fix with a multi meter

You will have to reset the remote control from your TV. It is the TV that has the problem, not the remote. When you had a power glitch it scrambled the data stored on the TV and it needs to be reinstalled all over gain.

Your Akai what? there is not enough information to answer this question.

Who knows? You did not tell us what make and model it is.

If you wish to get some details; visit the site linked here. Pull up older posts. sounds like the main board fault. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/

Vertical lines aren't generally caused by a bad panel, horizontal lines are...remove the cables going from the Tcon board to the panel, both at the tcon and panel, wipe them down and re seat them and see if that takes care of the issue, if it doesn't replace the timing board, I don't think this is a panel issue

You may need to have the unit cleaned. The problem is DVD players have come down in price quite a bit so to have it cleaned might cost you $50 when you can buy a new one for $60.
The cheaper alternative is to open it up yourself and see if you can clean any sensors. Of course unplug it when opening the unit up. Once the cover is off, plug it back in and throw a DVD in it. Look for any lights or mirrors that may need cleaning. Use a Q tip dipped in rubbing alcohol to lightly clean them. Here's the thing...if the thing can't read a DVD it's useless so I don't think you have to worry about breaking anything since it's already not working. Just be careful not to touch where the power comes in or where the transformer is. Always unplug the unit when taking off or putting on a metal cover.
