Riddled TV Repair Forum

Hello,

My Magnavox is barely two months old. It was turned on and was being watched when there was a loud noise (not like pop or bang from what I recall) and the picture went out.

The green LED light on the tv started blinking...it appears to blink at one speed about 20 times or so, then jumps to another speed.

None of the buttons on the side panel nor on the remote work. I've unplugged the tv, waited a few minutes, then plugged it in again. The issue persists. No picture, no sound, no way to change inputs.

Any thoughts on this? Thank you.

should still be under warranty. Call magnavox in the morning and find out their closest service center. It should be free to repair if it is only two months old.

you could also try the store you purchased it at. Most have less than a 60 day return policy though.

Thanks. Just wanted to ensure it wasn't a sign the kids poured water on it or something. Off to the repair center I go.
