This is a weird one.
Our 5-6 year old Hitachi 27-inch TV just turned off all of the sudden this morning... and will not turn back on.
This happened about six weeks ago. I couldn't figure it out. Tried everything. Unplugged it... Changed outlets. Tested the outlet, etc etc. Nothing.
So finally, I figured "ok, time to get a new TV (not a bad thing, actually.. plus its just the bedroom one).
So I disconected everything (DirecTivo, receiver, etc etc), and sat it on the ground. Then, just for sh*ts and grins, I plugged it into another outlet (which I had previously tried!) and voila, it was back!
No problems until this morning, when it did it again. Any suggestions? Is this a death rattle? The thing is in a tv armoire, so it is really a pain to get it in and out and get all the connections set up, so I don't feel like going through this again if instead someone can tell me what is going on!
Thanks in advance,
Frank
