KD-55X8509C Keeps Turning off
This has been happening for the past year - at least once every evening the tv just decides to turn itself off. It could be after 15 minutes of viewing or 4 hours so it's not a sleep/standby issue..Any ideas why this happens? It's not a massive inconvenience but it's obviously not right

Hi there
That certainly does not sound right. To be honest, that would drive me nuts
Is the TV still under warranty? If so, I would recommend you call in a warranty repair.
Before you do though, just a though on a couple of things:
- Check your remote control and see if there is a 'stuck' power button - it might just be slightly stuck down, and a slight movement turns tv off?
- If you have a surge protector, try using either another one, or test by plugging the TV directly into the socket on the wall.
- I dont suppose you have a family member playing 'funny games' by turning TV off - just remembering a clip on YouTube during the world cup football
Cheers

ha - now you mention that it's usually me doing that to the kids with my
phone when they're watching it - cheers for replying- I must check the
warranty on it and see. I can't see any issues with the remote button and I
don't have a surge protector and it's plugged directly into wall socket.
Appreciate the suggestions anyhow..cheers
