TV & Home Theater

[Marc227]

Hi my samsung just suddenly decided to turn on and off and makes that intro sound and clicking sound that you think it will fully open but it doesn’t. It just have a black screen then turns off again then on. I tried pulling the power plug, removing all cables and waiting a few minutes but it doesn’t work. Help!!

Disconnect the power cord from the outlet, then press and hold the power button on the TV (not the remote), for at least 10 seconds. Then wait a few minutes and plug the TV back in and press power once. 2 blinks on Samsung TV's usually indicates a bad power supply

Start there

Hi there, Marc227,

Welcome to our Best Buy forum community!

I know how much I enjoy my TV, so I can imagine that you feel the same way! Having a TV stop working as expected is never fun, but I appreciate that you took the time to reach out to us for support.

Bobberuchi's answer should do the trick, but if you're still running into your television turning off and on by itself after giving those steps a try, I recommend checking out our Home Theater Troubleshooting Guide for more ideas! 

Cheers,
