PLEASE REMOVE ME FROM YOU EMAIL PLEASE Thank You ----- Original Message ---- From: Matthew McNeely <mcneely@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: tvservice@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2007 8:11:36 AM Subject: [tvservice] Re: 46W500 Problems Hi Mike, If the output transistor is running that hot then something is drawing to much current. if you have access to resistance charts for the set I would use a ohm meter and check down stream from the transistor for lower than normal resistances. Also does the set have a damper diode? that could be leaky. Matt Mike Schoettinger wrote: > yes I put compuond on it.
