Samsung tv keeps switching on by itself

Wed Dec 15, 2010 2:13 pm

Hey guys was hoping somone had experienced this and knows how to fix it , basically my Samsung LCD will switch itself on the flicks between inout channels and the only way to stop it is to pull the plug it also randomly flicks to another input whilst watching I should also mention it beeps before doing it which it does when you press the touch buttons on the side.
Ive confirmed its not picking up stray signals or an issue with the remote.
I quite handy and know if im pointed in the right direction I can repair it with out forking out more then the tv's worth to a ripoff man I mean repair man.

make sure the side buttons are not dirty or stuck, press them down hard and make sure they come back up
if its the touch type, clean it good

Yeah its the touch type and cleaning was the firt thing I did, I just found a post on another site saying to switch the auto update of so ive done that and gonna see how it works but if not im guessing its thetouch bezel which apperantly takes all of 15 minutes to replace but I need to find where to buy the bezel from.
