That's not a tv, that's a microwave.


One thing to check (my Mother did this recently) is whether the remote has an analogue/digital button. My Mother's Sony (sounds like a line from a French language book) has one of these which she pressed in error. Until it is pressed again all is darkness.

When I switch on, DTV comes up in corner of screen then screen goes black

When channel number pressed, number appears, then screen goes black

When menu pressed, channel guide appears momentarily but empty of programmes, then screen goes black

When setup is pressed, menu for automatic or manual set up appears momentarily, then screen goes black with no time to pick from menu - NIGHTMARE!

Thats weird as the menu screens should stay up even if

no aerial or digital box is there - so it's the TV ??


Clean the ventilation of dust - might be overheating


Also the link below shows a few people pressing channel

up down as a Sony starts (why would that work)

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
    • I cook at home - almost 95% of what we eat at home is cooked from scratch.  But eating out is more than just having dinner, it is socialising and doing something different. Also,sometimes it is nice to pay someone else to cook and clear up.
    • Yup Juan is amazing (and his partner can't remember her name!). Highly recommend the wine tastings.  Won't be going to the new chain.
