hey all,

i had a question regarding a tv problem i've never really seen before. my 1 1/2 year old son was messing around with the buttons on his grandma's tv (RCA tru flat 20f511t.) according to my wife he hit the tv/video and the power button at the same time. the tv picture went black but the red power light remained on. when i attempt to turn the tv on with the power button there is no picture coming on. the light remains on. i told her to unplug it overnight and see what happens if it cools off. is this a fuse? is that an easy fix? i have experience with cars and with some electronics and conisder myself somewhat handy. any ideas much appreciated.

That's why they are piece a crap, and land fill when they fail,no parts,nothing,crap,crap,and crap,and our jobs go down the drain and to china,while you buy chinese stuff.but remember pretty soon you will not have any money to buy chinese cheap chinese stuff because you will not have no money,because there will be no pay check.and no jobs at all.

press setup, then menu, channel down to preferences, press enter, channel down to FPA LOCK, volume up to change to on or off, press menu to remove, all should work now

Maybe he stuck the TV in the garage 2 years ago?
