    Polaroid LE-32GCL-Y Turns on then off, displaying logo

    Hi,

    I'm trying to troubleshoot and fix a Polaroid LE-32GCL-Y that belongs to my Sister.

    The TV Turns on and shows the Polaroid logo then after around 30 seconds it then restarts, it does the power cycling until the TV is unplugged.

    The remote is able to bring the TV out of standby mode(once plugged in mains), but then loops on above issue, once it's turned on. No other buttons on the remote will work once it's on, before restarting again.

    I've taken the back off and checked all capacitors and no bulging has occurred, after reading this thread: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=59827

    I'm thinking maybe it's worth me replacing the Eeprom chip, any advice before I go ahead and do this?

    Details of the TV:

    TV Model: Polaroid LE-32GCL-Y
    Chassis #: SY14481010002799 (705-320-L3F54)
    Board: TP.SIS321.P83
    Screen: LS3209UWTH



    Many thanks for any help.

      Yeah, I had a 32" Seiki with the identical symptom and an almost identical board.
      Replacing the eeprom is the first thing i would do.

      There is this dump that you could try if you have a programmer.

          Thanks for replying diif!

          Okay I'll give replacing the eeprom a go, because I don't have a programmer sadly.

          Do you have any guidance on how I can identify the eeprom on the board? On the one I have, there are two chips very similar to each other. One is near the heat sink of what i assume is the processing unit and then there is another to the top left of this heat sink, around 3 - 4 inches away.

          Many thanks again fella!

              You're welcome, I think it's U5 next to the heatsink. You can usually identify the IC from the markings on the top.

                  Surface 7 Pro wont boot, shows Logo and immediately turns off
                  by taslan
                  Hello everyone,
                  as stated in the title, my surface 7 pro wont boot anymore.
                  When i press the power button it shows the square windows logo for a second and immediately turtns off again.
                  I dont even have a chance to get into bios or boot from usb.
                  While trying to find help online it was suggested to look for help/repair here on badcaps and it might be a ME Region corruption in bios.
                  I dont know what that is exactly, but i never tinkered with the bios or windows in terms of hacking/patching etc.

                  Vizio E701i-A3 Vizio logo flashing then turns off
                  by Super360
                  Ok so here's the story. I was watching tv one day when all of a sudden I heard a pop from the back of the tv set and rushed to unplug the set. By this time the tv already had smoke coming out the back. It was not storming or inclement weather that day to cause a power surge to the best of my abilities. When I opened the tv up, I found that the three capacitors on the psu (highlighted in red) were all bulging and looked they had exploded. I replaced all of them right away and when I went to start up the tv after the "fix" it started just showing the flashing vizio logo as soon as power...

                  Hisense 65H6570F Logo shows then turns off
                  by USmechS
                  Hello everybody,

                  I had this Hisense TV since November 2019 (Bestbuy Blackfriday special). Couple of nights ago my dad turned it off normally. In the morning it does turn on, shows the Hisense logo, then the LED light flashes and it turns off. It remains in the same state.

                  Things I have done:
                  A. Plug it off and on.
                  B. Plug it off, pushing the power button for up to 2 minutes, plug it in.
                  C. Contacted the customer service, They sent me a firmware update, with the file name:
                  upgrade_loader_no_tvcertificate.pkg
                  The zip file has this...

                  Vizio M60-C3 powers on, perfect logo, turns off
                  by ossroy
                  Vizio M60-C3 powers on, perfect logo, turns off. If you don't touch anything it will repeat this process by itself until it is unplugged. Not the "button board" since I disconnected the cables to the main board and the problem persisted. So I'm fairly positive something is going on with the main board, but want to know if there is a fix for this other than replacing the expensive mainboard, which may eventually have the same problem. Also, heat sink was hot as hell when this all started. Unplugged for a few days and same thing happens.

                  My kids are getting antsy waiting...

                  MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro Turns on functions then turns off when I plug in USB C cable
                  by Stephen
                  MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro Turns on functions then turns off when I plug in USB C cable to reset the computer. I disconnect the battery fully and then reconnect it and it won't turn back on. After letting it sit for a day I plug the battery back up, and the MagSafe 3 cable and it powers on and stays ons, once I plug in a USB C cable into the port closes to the MagSafe port it turns off and the Amber light turns off and won't turn on. No water damage, nothing, I want to do a DFU restore to wipe the computer since the customer stated they did an update and ever since it just decided to not work...
