Fixed! we have a 5yr old, non-smart Westinghouse flatscreen, didnt need the remote at all. Its been blinking for months now when we first turn it on and the screen went completely black today but the sound still worked. 1st try with one minute hold to pwr didnt work, 2nd try 2 min hold didnt work, 3rd try 3 minute hold and waited about 15 min before plugging it back in, its working, no blinking. Thank you so much, respect

Ricardo, thanks for your time on this. I still have no picture however. My Proscan TV does NOT appear to have an off/on button, just on its remote (though I turn the TV on and off with the Comcast cable remote). So I couldn't keep a TV on off button pressed for 60 seconds. I did press the remote on/off for 60 seconds but nothing. And, no matter what menu button I press or any other button, the screen remains dark. So ... I'm guessing there is no hope? Thank you.

Like the home button that we have on the newer cellphones. Would you please consider sending me a response to my inquiry regarding your video about how to try to get our black screen to work. I have tried to use your steps to clear the excess which might still be remaining in the tv after powering it off but I don’t this will work for mine if it’s a LED soft button for the power button. Because I am trying this and it seems to not be done correctly. Also my tv isn’t a smart tv. But is Samsung

Mine looks unresponsive to controler even though the indicator dot of the tv shows that it is receiving the signal from controler, the screen does not move at all.
