Battery Operated Televisions

How do I get rid of "Heat Run" from my portable tv?

A few months ago - my portable tv started showing at the top of the screen "Heat Run". I have tried every button on the remote but nothing takes it off. Any ideas please as it really is annoying.

  1. What BRAND?? This "Heat Run" is a setup/testing mode used by the manufacturer during the alignment process. It can be turned off, but you need to find the local AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER for your brand of TV to come and disable it..... OR Call the Manufacturer's Customer Helpline....
  2. This will be due to a problem with one or more components in the set usually capacitor/s You will need to have the set checked by an engineer to sort it. Tihis fault will get worse if left, as the capacitors dry out more.
