TV wont turn on

[spooooonger]

Not sure if this is the right forum, but figured someone here would be able to help. So I bought a 53" Rear Projection TV on craigslist about a month ago. Its worked perfectly up until yesterday, but now wont turn on. When you press power it sounds like its turning on, but then powers off without anything showing up on the screen. Anyone TV savvy? Model is RCA- PC52921

it sounds like something inside is faulty.

you probably should get an expert to look at the thing.


as a general rule, opening up TVs to play around with the stuff inside is a bad idea, as they're not designed to be user serviceable (compared, for example, to a PC)
