Magnavox Television: Problem with input signals

Thu, 02 Jan 2025 02:55:32 -0700

Hello.

I have a 26" 1996 Magnavox, model RF4552 CH03

The input signals from the 75 ohm coaxial connections are connected and the signals have always worked until recently. Now it works intermittently. Sometimes there's just static on all connections and I have to turn off the TV for a few hours. It's getting to the point where it's only working for 5 minutes then it goes back to static.

Could it be a problem with the tuner?

So my TV was all fine until a dew seconds ago. It won't stay on anymore. It'll turn on, load the Hdmi3 screen for a second or 2 then immediately shut off. Ive taken the back off to see anything..not sure what I'm looking at or for.

Magnavox Television: How to remove white specks on outside of TV screen?

Thu, 15 Dec 2022 17:01:04 -0700

I have noticed these white spots that are on the outside of screen and I cannot seem to get them off. Most research I’ve found was related to pixel issues and these are most definitely not a pixel problem as they don’t affect picture at all. If I touch the screen I can feel the spots and they look sort of like salt crystals on the screen. This issue seems to also be on the bezel of the TV as well.

Magnavox Television: Magnavox 19MD301B stuck in standby mode

Tue, 11 Oct 2022 10:40:08 -0700

It worked for a few minutes before it went into standby mode.

At first I tried to turn it off and on again using the power button, but it would flash the power light quickly before going back into standby mode.

The way I had it plugged in was through a 3-outlet extender along with a fan (on lowest setting) and a CRT television I use every night to watch VHS tapes.) I moved this TV over to an 11-outlet APC extender (PC/PC monitor/speakers/Xbox 360/Wii/USB charger/battery recharger), which is plugged into a 4-outlet extender (APC extender)

When I moved the Tv to the APC extender, that's when it failed. I tried plugging it into a different outlet on the extender, but now it just stays in standby mode regardless of if I press any buttons or unplug and plug it back in.

I checked the online manual (this was a hand-me-down TV) and it could be that it needs to run on 120V only, but I don't know what that means.
