Trash Find: TCL L40FHDM12

Are you sure it actually turned off, and it didn't just turn the backlight off? Turn it on, when the screen goes blank, hit the 'menu' button and point a bright flashlight at the screen and see if you can see the menu. If you can, it's the inverter or a bad CCFL tube.

I just tried that and yes when the screen goes blank it is off pressing menu or input or channel shows nothing on the screen so I am sure it is turning off
