When I turn the TV on the Westinghouse logo appears, followed in a few seconds by the setup screen and then the screen goes black. I've had this TV for a little over a year and it was working fine until this morning
Televison & Video - Westinghouse Electric - SK-32H570D 32 in. LCD TV/DVD Combo
One of the inverter transformers could be blown too. You can buy them on e-bay by entering the number from the top of the transformer, It requires soldering. The bad transformer will be 'leaking' or will have burned the circuit board. The problem I have had is that even after replacing the transformer, the over-current circuit kicks in and the same 'shut-off' thing happens. I replaced all of the blue 5pf 3kv capacitors with 5pf 6kv caps, and still the same problem. finally, I just removed all of the blue capacitors by the transformers and now it works great! Unfortunately, this bypasses the over-current protection and the set will not turn off next time a transformer has a melt down. Possible fire hazard. be careful with this fix.
I would recommend not leaving the set unattended, and if you smell burning, turn it off.
Unfortunately, since the manufacturer was nice enough to shellac or leave a heavy rosin coating on the solder side of the board, it is really hard to test individual components :(
Sounds like a simple input issue, the set up screen has popped up because a signal is not being detected by your video ports. I would hit the source button on the manufacture remote control and toggle it to the right input. is it connected to a cable box??/ and if so what type of inputs are going to your tv from the source, eg, hdmi dvi, coax, component ????? and also is there a dvd player or vcr in the mix, if so I would also check the cable from it and even bypassing the dvd or device going directly into your tv can also tell volumes.
