Fix- Samsung Smart TV turns ON and OFF repeatedly by itself!

A TV that turns on or off by itself is not necessarily broken. A simple, easily fixed problem is usually the culprit. There may be a power button stuck on the remote or the batteries in the remote are dying. An internal timer may accidentally be set to turn on the TV.
