Hello again,
I 'am hoping some one can help me diagnose my Proscan LED TV.
It is model # PLDED3992 A and it does turn on and displays multiple lines across the top and left side of the screen. Within 1 minute the screen turns dark blue but there is no response on the screen when the control buttons on the side are pressed. Only response is from the power button, it turns on/off.
I don't have a remote control for it and was wondering if it's worth trying to fix.

Any help will be much appreciated
