asking for a friend .his tv goes from on to off ,had a look for him today it keeps going to off after a while ,is that a big job as he is a pensioner or does it just need a new on - off button replaced ??? i am no tv enginner thanks in advance

His Sleep Function could be switching his TV off.
Go into Menu and look for sleep function and deactivate that

My dad's TV has a snooze function to save power if he falls asleep. It periodically pops up and asks him to press a key on the remote (if he hasn't used any of the other controls in a preset period). If he doesn't respond, it turns itself off.

thanks for your replys been to see ,there is nothing on the menu to say he has a time scale so that the tv switches it self off .he says if he keeps his finger on the button a while it stays on .it has stayed on while i have been away to me it does seem like the on - off button has a fault but like i say am no tv enginner. if any help he never switches off on the tv button always on main switch on wall

the reason i think its the on - off button is. it jumps from blue to red when i use the tv on -off button .if that makes sence

If he has a TV Handbook, look in the Index to see if it mentions Sleep Function and if it does check it out throuh TV Remote,
Blue is Standby and Red is Off
