I have a LCD monitor wwhich can be used as a TV too. I have been using it for around 3yrs. The TV has 5 source modes TV, SV, AV, YPbPr, VGA. This morning when I turned it on, it started switching modes automatically, staying at one mode for a few seconds. While it is auto switching mopdes, I cannot manually change the modes either. Thus making the TV/Monitor unusable. Any ideas what's ailing my monitor? I will be taking it to a repair shop soon.

My Samsung 23.6" does the same thing. It happens when it can't detect the source input. When it happens, it switches to the next mode looking for a signal. It stops when an input signal is detected.
So in your case I assume you checked that all the connectors are in place securely. If it is then there's something wrong with the tv itself.

sorry for not replying after the problem was solved. don't know if it was what you said that did the trick but after i connected a stereo male to the audio-in port, the problem stopped thankfully. thank you!– abelNov 29, 2010 at 8:21
