Stuck power ON remote control button ... or loose power plug ... check the connection at the back of the TV ... gets loose over time ...

on/off of remote is not working anymore. I checked the button at the back and it is okay.

If I "sleep" the TV, it will turn off a few seconds and then open again but with the ambon ambon/black and white grains screen. I have to program the channels again

So I have to pull the plug to turn it off and then reprogram the channels every time I turn on.

Our 6-yr-old 40" Skyworth and 4-yr-old 38" Devant are still doing ok. The buttons on the TVs are not reliable anymore but the remotes still work ok even after quite a few drops over the years. The Skyworth is particularly abused because it's the dedicated Playstation TV but we haven't had any problems with it so far.

Yung Sony namin mga walag problema ipinamigay na lang.

Sharp is also very durable more than 10 yrs na din okay pa.

But I will always buy a Sony. Iba tibay at video quality.

Have an Aiwa TV that's still working.

20 years na yata.

But yeah, I'll swear by Sony.

So far so good.

Yung 90s Trinitron namin buhay pa, namatay na lahat ng TV sa buhay, siya buhay pa. We brought it to the province kasi malakas daw sa kuryente CRT.

Pero yung ex ko, sinusumpa na mga newer model ng Sony

if remote ang problema, check mo sa Lazada baka may similar/replacement remote o yung mga universal remote controls

the difficult part is opening it up.
once opened, it is easy to clean and close down.

It is not the remote because if I power it on and off using the button at the TV. If I turn it off, it turns on by itself after a few seconds. Also, after mag on, wala na sa program yung channel (black and white grains na lang nakikita ko) I have to pull the plug para mag off.

I have an 11-year old 32" Sony bravia LCD tv. My kids are still using it for their DVDs til this day.
I also have 3 samsung lcd/led tvs. 1 had to be repaired for a forgotten problem after 5 years but still running til this day. The other 2 samsungs are turning 3 yrs old and no problems so far.
Never tried LG coz of "dull" colors.
Oh, our household help's 3 year old 19" myview tv is still running.
