Thanks Leonard.
I actually got different stories from the TPA and the customer. The shop that 
has been working on this
pretty much found nothing wrong, but the set worked for a few weeks when the 
customer got it back...twice.

Q5A01, Q5A31  can cause excessive width and shutdown, if either fail,
suspect a bad T5A31.  Had one with a bad transformer that would lose focus
then died.  Cust did not complain of size changes but it is likely with this
circuit.

What does the diagnostic say?  Is it in HV shutdown or H,V?

Coolant is always a good bet on these.

Had one with a flaky 12v regulator causing some strange problems.
