Phillips 36" tube television wont turn on???

Question

The cord in the back has a few scratches into it, as if dog or cat chewed into it. The tv is only 6 years old, and doesn't need to be replaces. worked up until 2 weeks ago and now when you press power nothing happens. Tried switching outlets and got nothing, worked for a while if you left it unplugged for a few hours and then plug it back in and turn it on. That isn't working anymore, any suggestions. dont really want to take it anywhere its REALLY heavy!

Answer 1

Sounds like you have a thermal intermittent in your power supply.

You don't want to mess with this. It really needs to be looked at by a qualified technician.

Call the store you bought it from and ask them if they can recommend a tech who can come to your house and check it out. It will cost you around $150 for this; but if you want to hold on to the TV, it's your only choice.
