I guess I could put the old one back in,..but, you know how these philips printed ckts. are. You only have ONE chance to replace a large IC like that one, before you damage the trace. I'm sure it's the right part number. I double checked it. Also, it's facing the right direction. Pin # 1 is lined up properly.
