This set is 3 years old and will not turn on first time in the morning. I have to unplug it from the wall socket for about 30 seconds, plug it back in and will turn on. From there it will power up throughout the day. This is using the remote that came with the set. I have found that when it is not used for some time "overnight" is when the problem happens.

I did not unplug it for more than 30 seconds for fear of losing all of my personal settings.

There is a power block that is in between the 120v house current and a secondary lead that plugs into the back...

Hello everyone, my name is Gary. Have always liked Electronics, and anything electrical. Back in the day I have repaired T.Vs and radios to friends and family like 40 years ago! Back when CRT T.Vs were the only thing out there. Information I used back then were mostly with Sams Photo Facts in relation to the type of set being repaired. I also like Shortwave radio! Receiver I use is the Kenwood R-1000.

Thanks for having me onboard!
