TV Intermittently blacks out, repeatedly.

[Jim]

No idea what is happening with my TV. I will be watching a show and suddenly the TV will black out for a second, maybe two. Then it will come back on. 30 seconds later, repeat. Then it may run for an hour with no issues. Suddenly, starts all over again.

See video.

Loose or defective cable or HDMI cord; loose AC cord at plug; defective TV.
After checking above, just replace it. TVs, especially FireTV, Roku, or Xumo TVs are dirt cheap!

Yep, not like the old days when my dad would send me down to test the tubes. God I miss that.
