    TCL TV issues after power outage

    Our tv turns on very dim after a power outage or when shore power is disconnected. We've managed to get it to work a few times, but don't know the best solution.

    Do you mean it turns on while power is out, or after power is restored?

    It doesn't turn on by itself. When we turn it on, it is extremely dim. We unplug it multiple times for extended periods, push the reset button, do a factory reset...nothing changes the dim issue. Seems like it goes into some sort of low power setting when there is no 120v power available. We just don't know how to get it back once power is restored.

    That sounds like the backlight is bad.

    I'd agree.... sounds like the TV quit. Sometimes they work forever, sometimes they fail pretty early on.
