any tv engineers here?
i have a confusing problem with my tv :confused:
|
Can you give us a clue?
|
Is it plugged in? ;)
|
Is it a TV and not a toaster? :)
|
If the people are upside-down, you may wish to rotate the TV through 180 degrees in order to obtain a better picture.
|
you have to look at the side without the wires going in :)
|
yes, yes and yes :D
the set is made by Relisys. when i go to bed i switch the tv off using the switch on the back so its not in standby. when i switch the tv on i get a green light (normal) then i press it and it goes yellow. for the last fewe months the tv is taking longer and longer to go on, sometimes its over 5 minutes and getting longer every day the switch on the back of the tv needs a bit of a wiggle sometimes to get the yello light up, i know this is wrong but is this causing the problem? diagnosis? :thumb: |
at a guess
wiggled switch = power spike/surge ****ing the TV up |
leave it on standy.
also use 4 slice option on toaster when making 2 slices, and regulate the temperature of the house by having the heating on ful blast and varying the opening of the windows.... other than that, it might be new telly time... :) |
Hmm I think the tube has a problem!
;) :D |
Electricity where you live is notoriously slower, Sara. It doesn't help being nearer Christmas either when more electricity is being consumed. Ask your utility company for an upgrade to faster electricity which they usually do free of charge. :thumb:

Spoon has pretty much nailed it I think. One thing you might try is warming the cable running to the TV, which would effectively 'unfreeze' the electric.
|
I'd go with Spoons diagnosis aswell. Should only be an easy phone call to your supplier :thumb:

Yes indeed, I forgot to mention the frozen electricity element but thought everyone had 'cable socks' fitted in the winter. :)
you would love me to give them a call wouldn't you, i am not that daft :D |
It's probably the TV stand interfering with the set, short stands are notorious for this. You need to visit somewhere like Dixons or Currys and ask for a long stand :)

Nothing worse than having slow electricity!
