    I have the same problem with my Hitachi 50" TV except when I turn it on it will come on for a second then shut off. If I unplug it and wait another second I can then turn it on. This is repeated multiple times and then it eventually stays on. I have noticed that the more moisture in the air the worse this gets. I think moisture is on an older transistor or something and it needs replaced. Anyone out there who has serviced this problem?

    Sounds like a short somewhere in your set. the clicking is a safety button that prevents an electrical short. it is activated by a power surge or a high temperature range. this is an indication of a problem. take your set to a technician or replace the televison set altogether. I would not leave an unsafe television plugged in.

    Mine shuts off after four hours, the auto-shutdown is off, there's no timer set, it just shuts off in the middle of movies, games, wtvr, very annoying and if you don;t catch it quick enough, it goes into shutdown mode, then I have to wait for that to cycle through, sux. Never buying Hitachi again, the dynamic mode flickers (unwatchable) the speakers went, 6-weeks! to repair, no TV entire Christmas season, go Sony.
