Hi,

I have an Insignia TV/DVD model TVDVD20A in my
service shop (no SM).

The set will turn on, but when you try to change the
volume, channel, etc. It turns off. It won't play a DVD,
because I can't get it to switch from TV to DVD (turns
off).

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Thanks in advance, Brad

Check to make sure none of the wires to the front panel are open or shorted,
these sorts of faults in multiplexed wiring can cause very strange behavior
like this.


....or a simple mechanical problem )assuming OP is using front panel
controls, not remote). Perhaps pushing one button flexes the assembly
and also causes power switch to cycle.
