Vertical lines, shuts off, now won't turn on

Hi,

Is the TV Power light on when the power is connected to the TV?

Does the TV Power light show a blink code pattern when you try to turn on the TV?

Here’s the start of the Troubleshooting section in the service manual that may help to determine what is wrong.

You will need to have and know how to use a DMM (digital multimeter) to find out what is wrong with the TV.

Hopefully a start.

Thank you @jayeff

I will find someone who knows who knows how to use a DMM.

The TV only turns on sometimes now. Other times the red light won't even come on. I moved it across the room to see if it was just the outlet.

I'll check out the manual in the meantime.

Cheers, Julie
