TV suddenly loses power
Reasons for TV power failure
- The main cause of TV power failure could be due to frequent use of the remote to turn off the TV without unplugging it, causing residual electricity inside the TV. Over time, the electronic components of the TV will deteriorate. To avoid the TV power failure issue, it's advisable to develop a habit of unplugging the TV immediately after turning it off with the remote.
Only using the remote to turn off the TV without unplugging it
- TV being exposed to a humid environment (such as a damp wall near the TV) can cause moisture to seep into the TV's circuits, resulting in power failure.
- Sudden increases in power (such as lightning strikes) can damage components like fuses, power supply capacitors, power ICs, pre-supply sources, etc., leading to power circuit damage.
Troubleshooting Methods
- To minimize TV power loss or other damages, it's recommended to place the TV in a dry location, avoiding contact with damp or wet walls. Additionally, ensure the TV is plugged into a stable power source.
- When encountering TV power loss issues, check the electrical socket and plug for any looseness or electrical faults. If there are no issues with the socket or plug, inspect the fuse for any abnormalities. If the power loss is due to loose connections, simply reconnect; however, if there are damages, consider replacing the fuse or socket/plug.
Inspecting Electrical Sockets and Plugs
- If addressing the electrical issue doesn't resolve the TV's power-on problem, it's likely that internal components are damaged. Consider taking the TV to the manufacturer's warranty center (if still under warranty) or a repair shop for inspection and repair.
