are caused by simple "faults"
that you can correct without
the help of a service technician.
If you experience any difficulty
with your TV, check a few basic remedies before calling your service technician.

on
Check to make sure it is plugged
in.
Check the wall receptacle (or extension
cord) to make sure it is "live" by plugging
in something
else.
