Why does tv turn itself on

What would cause the tv to randomly turn itself on?

ANSWERS:

this happened to my mawmaw. i thought it was time for a new tv so off to walmart i went. got a new tv…not a vizio again but an LG. got to mawmaws set it up and took the old set home and figured out how to fix it. in setting there is a setting to reset to all factory defaults. this will make the tv just like the day you bought it. when i reset it to factory defaults and reprogrammed the tv to my cable box it fixed the turning on by itself. what caused the tv to malfunction i have no clue but resetting the tv to factory defaults fixed this issue.

Turn it from Eco mode to quick start in settings. Did this and it doesn't happen anymore

I've tried all the suggestions and nothing worked. I then found a setting in the “System” for the USB port. It was set to ”always on.” I changed it to “off when the TV off" and it worked! Vizio E43-F1

Mine started doing this after having it for about 5 days. Nothing connected to it to interfere as some stories suggest on these trouble shooting forums. I wound up having to take the remote out of the room to get it to stop. Tried just turning it around so it wasn't pointed at it…nope..had to completely remove it from the room.
