How to Fix Your RCA TV That Won't Turn On - Black Screen Problem

[@DaveJohnson-Php]

Something different worked for me. The black screen happened 3 times over a 7 year period, and I got it working all 3 times, with 2 causes of the problem being the same, SCROLLING. I unplugged TV from wall for 2 minutes, then plugged it back in the wall. I used the remote power button to turn it on, which is the only part of the remote that worked now. When the white screen came on saying RCA I immediately hit next channel up on the remote. It moved up to next channel, then everything was good again. I realized that when it happened a second time it happened when I was scrolling through the channels when it hit 50.4 both times, it stopped working. I tried the same method I just used when it happened again and it worked the second time as well. Once working I went into show/Hide on remote and pressed Hide that channel so it won't scroll on it again. The same thing happened about 4 years ago, but at that time it was channel 38.1 This method worked all 3 times. David Johnson Canada

[@someswararaot6152]

It’s working should i do this everytime.?

[@jasoncarlson1718]

Do I hold the flashlight to the back of the TV screen or the front of the TV screen?

[@carlsandberg6956]

How is the flash light going to shine through the plastic to get to the front screen 😢, you're going to buy a new TV if you couldn't figure this out.

[@Mushroom.Madness.]

Make sure it's an LED flashlight or else won't shine through the back 👍

[@Ramanamurthy007]

[@neroissolost741]

Fix it by changing the picture settings too standard instead user it went black screen but turn it off and on now its working again thought I had to kick it too the curb might have to shine a light at the screen too see picture settings for me it did

[@marc-andrecameron1256]

I’m not on my 3rd tv in 6 months. Both after a month or Soo the screen start to go all blurry and shit

[@alcoholicdread1524]

So I said fuck it tried to stream KZbin from my phone and then still no picture but I heard the video and then I turned it off then back on and it had the apps menu up for some reason and it would only go blank if i exited it so from there I was able to go to settings and factory reset and so far it seems to being working fine

[@chefjamesmacinnis]

Most of the 1st stuff is nonsense you would still see your TV menu if it wasn't broken

[@Nikkii199045]

(Comment by gage) my dad's rca tv is doing the black screen but nothing is working even your tricks. so I think my dad's tv is busted

You have to put a light on to see your screen

[@carollanderson3478]
