Kevin, I had a similar problem with a Sylvania unit, could be the same. I changed the center LED and cleaned mode switch again and this finally fixed the set. Mine would start up and play for 30 seconds then shut down the T.V and VCR. I was chasing the problem to the power supply (mine came in with power supply blown also) which I fixed, then had other problems, until one of the tech's helped me with this fix! Bruce. Note: This was my similar Problem!!(Subject: [TechAssist] 14"Syl TV/VCR (WLTR13G)1997.POWER SUPPLY PROBLEM?)
