Have Mitsubishi VS5043 PTV, set has gassy blue CRT, blue smeared to the right side of pix. Set may not come on 3 out of 4 tries at turn-on. Found a pin on video chip I200, called " Ik in " and goes to AKB on all 3 CRT sockets. Have never seen any tips or info on Mitsubishi PTVs with this problem. No flashing red LED like Sony with bad Ik. Would like to know if others have had this problem with video not coming on sometimes (audio comes on each time no matter what).
