Thanks Jim, I found it hidden under the back cover.(After complete disassembly). Fuse #1300 was open,...and IC # 7302 was dead short on pin # 12. The IC is an AN7591. The fuse device has a number (F3,15A250) written on it. Not sure of the value,...but, I think it is 315 ma, cause I found a similar fix for a different model, on the "Intrepid Repair CD", that had these numbers listed. I think the Philips part number for the fuse is 482225251151,...but I need to confirm this. Also, I need the Philips part number for the IC # 7302. I'll check the Tritronics web site to see if they have the part numbers listed. Thanks again, Jim. This is a good example of how the TechAssist system can work for ALL of us. Also,....thanks for sending the requested Pdf file. Have a nice day ! LLW LeRoy Westlund Westlund TV & Electronics " It's such a pretty world 93 North Main today !....
