Neil, These sets are famous for strange problems with the Jungle IC 301. Monitor the PIN drive signal on pin 5 of connector CN221 on A board or CN321 on M board. You should see a perfect Parabolic wave form. If not,....replace IC 301 (CXA1477), with an OEM part number 8-752-063-50. It's about a $65 chip,....but,...don't waste your time, and $$$ on the cheap bargains you might find. Use OEM part ONLY.

Sound is Ok but you cannot see any type of picture because of multiple colored lines in the video. Cannot read OSD but you can tell it's there. It seems like it could be a very bad convergence problem like the Zenith's notorious R3243 but a lot worst. Any help would be appreciated, Neil Tv Doctors Monroe,Wa. >------------------------------------------ >Submit A Repair Tip For Everyone Here: >http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/main.html >------------------------------------------ >To REMOVE your email address, click here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html >To CHANGE your email address, click here: > http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html > > ------------------------------------------ Submit A Repair Tip For Everyone Here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/main.html ------------------------------------------ To REMOVE your email address, click here: http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html To CHANGE your email address, click here: http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html
