If it happens at the same time every day, you definitely have a "wake-up" timer set.



That, or it's ghosts. For sure.

not the same time.  varies between 6-7 pm and tonight it turned on at around 1 am.  I already searched for a timer in the menus but it only has an off timer.

yeah i really cant figure this out. I thought maybe it was getting a signal from something else but at 1 am nothing going on in the house?  Weird shit.  Been doing it for about a month.  Wife was yelling at the kid for leaving her tv on and had to eat crow when we figured out it turns itself on.

Could be an errant signal from the neighbors or something.

could a tv remote travel through walls like that?  Might make sense if one of the neighbors watches tv about the same time every day.

Unless your neighbor is outside your window holding their remote up to the window, it won't be that.

Take out the batteries out of the remote  and unplug the tv. And if it turns on then....grab the kids and the wife and get the fuck out asap!!!!
Cant kill a motherfucker that dont bleed!

Before running you also might want to reset the tv back to factory settings.

Not likely....unless through the windows with the same kind of remote and tv.

I would expect you have a timer set to turn it on after a certain amount of time off

The time it turned on in the middle of the night, did you use it later than usual?

every time my friend comes to my house and locks his car my door bell rings , i could change the frequency on the door bell but it works out just fine



sorry i got nothing on your TV except to say most demonic possessions start with the TV , all i can say is "do not go to the light "

I dont believe in all that.  I think the thing is just broken in some way but since it happens around the same time every day Im thinking maybe it's a signal coming from somewhere. Either that or the programing for the turn off timer is fucked up maybe telling it to turn on?

Regardless , don't start asking if 'anything' is there and messing with something. I think it's just an issue with the tv. We occasionally have lights and tvs come on here and there. Wiring, and switches not turned off all the way, that's it.
