Look for inductors that may have bad solder where coil wire attaches to pin that comes through the board. Adolph Gower Cordova TV 10275 Old Placerville Rd. Suite 5 Sacramento, Ca.

Sometimes it will work fine but it doesn't appear to be temperature or vibration related. Used up a can of freeze spay, used the heat gun as well as resoldered everything in sight. One of the few times it does work, you can go into the menu and access the customer convergence and the cross hair adjustments work just fine. When the set has the problem, you go into the menu and access the cross hair adjustments and there isn't any response at all. The other menu functions work. I saw it act up one time from good to bad. It looks like the Hitachi sets do when you hit the magic focus button, with the various sides and corners changing size and linearity. This is the best way I can describe it. I replaced IC804. IC806, IC808, (PM0011AS),IC809, IC810 (STK392-110). There was absolutely no change. > I looked for an eeprom but I didn't see anything that resembled one. > Sure could use some ides on this one. > Thanks, > Daryl > > Daryl's TV > 2402 Wyoming Ave. > El Paso, TX 79903 > daryls_tv@xxxxxxx > www.angelfire.com/tv2/daryls_tv > > > -- > ___________________________________________________________ > Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com > http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- > Lost Password: > http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?". > Email Archives: > //www.freelists.org/archives/techassist/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lost Password: http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?".
