High pitched noise coming from TV
TomF
24-01-2003
Hi,

I was hoping someone here could help me solve the problem with my TV. It is a Black Diamond 29 inch (I know, piece of cr*p ).
Every so often, especially just after being turned on, it makes a terrible high pitched noise. This can be stopped if I mess around with the scart connection on the back.

Any ideas what could be causing this and is there any hope of a fix?

Thanks,

TomF

Prolly normal if its a 50hz Widescreen set , I know a lot of TV are affected by this inc my Panny 32.
If its really bad it may be poor shielding on the tuner or something like this but I think your gonna have to live with it

It's not unusual for TV's to whistle... it's usually a transformer or coil vibrating slightly. Replacing the offending item should cure it, at a price of course... cheaper solutions include moving the tv slightly (to apply pressure which might stop the whistle) or sometimes even a little wedge placed somewhere might cure it... Best not to open up the TV to do this though, there are some nasty voltages lurking inside.

If you can just move a cable and temporarily cure it, then see if you can slightly wedge the cable to stop this happening.
