I have a 10 years old 30inch phillips tv model 32pw6515/06, that sometimes the picture just switches itself off. If I switch the TV off and on again, the picture doesn't come on then. When I do switch the tv on, a few days/couple of weeks later then the picture comes on. The cycle continues. What causes the picture to automaticaly go off??
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays!

Possibly short circuit. I had problems like that with old CRT TV and monitors here in summer, when the humidity is very high.
It might help to dry it out with a hairdrier through the back vents.
But I think it's on the way out. It will only get worse. Time to look for a replacement. -
Thanks for the advice. If it continues will try to investigate further...! Something tells me that there is still a bit of life left on this thing! Too young to be kicked out of the door..

If you can find an old-school TV repairman, he can probably work out the problem.
However, these days the cost of repair is often more than buying a working used one. I have a very nice 10-year-old Sony 30" myself I got for the cost of delivery as someone was upgrading to plasma.
