Hello,

I have done everything indicated in the forum without turning on my TV.
It turned on and worked for a few minutes with a scrambled screen and then it turned off again, blinking 4 times.
I tried using the mute button for 5 seconds and pressed the power button on the back of the remote, it worked but without the image, the sound was perfect.
When changing channels, after a few minutes, nothing worked anymore.
Can you help me knowing that I don't understand much?
Thank you very much

Configuration: iPhone / Safari 12.1.1

Hello,
It might be a problem with the electrical overload of the TV's protection circuit;
The solution is very simple and worth a try:
You need to unplug the power cable and connect the two prongs of the plug together (short circuit with a wire, a metal wire, a paperclip) for at least one hour to allow the protection circuit to discharge.
