Continuous restarts on TCL Roku TV

By default, the TCL Roku TV is set on auto-updates, so in case of a new update, it will automatically install on your TV. But if you have turned it off, it might cause many issues, including continuous restarting of the TV. 

The new software update brings several bug fixes and new features to give a more reliable experience. 

Here are the steps to update the Software of TCL Roku TV.

  • Go to Settings 
  • Tap on “System”
  • Under System, find “About” -> “Software Update.”
  • If your auto-updates are not turned on, tap on a System update to install the latest software.

It’s recommended to keep your Roku TV on “Auto-updates” to avoid any kind of issue in the future. 

Method 2: Check The Power Cable

A faulty power cable can also cause your TV to restart its own. Check the power cable and if there might be any fault in the plug; open the plug and check both positive and negative terminals are properly aligned. 

Secondly, the loose power connection also causes continuous restarting of the TV.

So you can change the outlet to ensure the fit insertion of a plug. Try the next step if the power cable and outlet are fine. 

Method 3: Is Your TCL Roku TV Overheat

Because of overheating, the TCL Roku TV automatically restarts to prevent serious damage. If you’re streaming movies or TV shows in 4K resolution, there are more overheating chances. 

So, in this case, the TV will automatically turn off, and you don’t have to worry about it. Keep your Roku TV off for a few minutes, and then turn it on again. 

Also, ensure your TV is not too close to the wall, and keep the proper space for ventilation to avoid overheating.

Method 4: Outdated Apps

The malware can be caused by the USB connection to your Roku TV or your internet connection. In such a case, you must remove the USB from the TV port and update the software or reset your TCL Roku device. In my case, I did the factory reset, and it solved my issue.
