Jeff, or anyone else.... Would that be "from a cold start-up, tries three times and won't come on- remains dead" or is it like my symptom "shuts down after 5-10 mins, retries (on it's own) to start-up three times and remains off - when you press power, it comes back on immediately for another 5-10 mins"? I'd hate to buy an unneccessary flyback on this one. It's already a no profit job. Ken Dyche Mississauga T.V. Inc.
