TV RCA rtr3261-b-ca won't turn on

Hello,

I’ve unplugged my TV for 3 weeks while traveling. On my return I’ve plugged it but it didn’t turn on . I've tried practically everything (pressing the power button for several seconds before plugging in etc ...) but nothing works.

Each time I’ve unplugged it, the power LED (which since this failure is always off) blinks once and goes out, and then nothing ...

Any help would be welcome. Thank you

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

@bashibouzouk … when it comes to dead sets, it is usually a power supply issue. To determine this correctly, it will require a multimeter and the ability to use it. Let us know if you have this and we can see what can be done for you.

@bashibouzouk ... so the red light is indicating that you have some sort of life to the set. on the powersupply board (the board that the ac plug from the wall attatches) youll see another plug leading to the mainboard. at the connector on the power supply side, you should see a legend that lists the pins and voltages that should be present. check with the multimeter and see if they match up. post your findings.

@jostewcrew … Hi,

Yes I have a multimeter and I'm not so bad on using this kind of item.

If this can also help to solve the problem, the LED in the optical is always on when I plug the TV.

Thanks
