I have a Mitsubishi rear-projection TV that's about 3 years old that has
recently been exhibiting a strange characteristic. Every now and then, when
it's shut off with the "power" button on the remote controller, the set
turns off and then immediately comes back on again. Is symptom just
described a sign that something is failing, or about to fail? I have an
extended warranty that's still in force. Thanks for your replies! PE

Put a fresh battery in the remote, and don't hold the power button down
too long.

My 46' RCA Rear Projection (4 years old)had a similar glitch. My TV
repairman suggested that I unplug it for a bit, then retry. It worked
well for me. It resets the box presets.....

I'd suggest posting this message to alt.tv.tech.hdtv. I am an HDTV wannabe
and I've got lots of good info there.

Use your extended warranty. That's why you purchased it right? Let the
pros check it out.
Good luck

Hi,
Or if the switch on the TV does not cause problem, you may have sticky
button on the remote control.
