How do you repair an RCA TV that keeps turning itself on and off?

Question

My TV is around 2 years old and was working fine one minute and then the next minute it turned itself off and then on again. It acts as if there is someone continually pushing the remote button but no one is touching it. It is a regular model TV not a flat screen, and it is very large, 32 inch screen, so taking it out to a repairman is going to be a chore. I am trying to find out if it is worth fixing. We bought the TV new for 250.00 from Walmart, and of course they no longer carry that particular type of TV in stock, I already called them about it. They told me to contact RCA and when I did that they said that because the set was over a year old, I had to go through a local repair shop and pay for it out of pocket. If there is anyone out there that knows why the set is doing this and how to fix it, it would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to buy another TV if I can fix this one.

Answer 1

You should be able to fix it....all you need is to find an Authorized RCA service center and pay them to come to your home....

Many servicers do have IN - HOME service....they come out to your home, estimate the repair cost, you authorize the work, and they take it with them to the shop.....

Your back and your Tv is saved.....

Look in the yellow pages for Television - Repair or Service.

And if you can't find one, GOOGLE RCA service.
