Dale, I think it was D825 near vertical output remove and discard this diode may become leaky and cause problems, there was a bulletin years ago on this problem. try this web site for tips: http://www.pasc.panasonic.com/olt/TV.htm Robert tvservice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx H & H Electronics Inc ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary McCartney" <number63@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, September 17, 2002 6:53 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Panasonic CTV # CTK-2790S, Chassis# AEDP152 or GL7C Repeat IC801 failure > > Dale, I had a similar problem with my own TV, only it is the 31" version > of the same chassis. > I'll send you the information I have.
