3 Image frozen on glitchy snow on RCA RLED4243A-UHD. What's the problem?
Hi! I have a RCA RLED4243A-UHD on which the image is stuck on a kind of glitchy snow patchwork that is not moving at all. Here are a few things that I have considered important to mention:
- The TV is stuck on this image whether sources are connected or not
- I have sound and I can switch channels and inputs
- Unplugging the TV for a long period of time doesn't help.
- The capacitors seem to be OK, as far as I can tell
- About a year ago, the hdmi/vga ports all stopped working so I had to buy an HDMI to component converter. The converter does not seem to be part of the problem however since when it's unplugged or when I switch sources, it doesn’t solve anything.
Is this a good question?

As soon as the TV is turned on, this frozen glitchy image appears and it does not seem to matter if a source is plugged in or not. However, with component and cable (coaxial), I only get sound and the image issue remains the same. I know that I’m able to switch channels and inputs only because of the audio.
HDMI and VGA ports ceased to work about a year ago and before this particular problem occured, I had the ‘no signal’ warning on each and every one of them: no sound and no audio. Component and coaxial used to work just fine, image and sound-wise.
