Check the power relay. It was a common problem. I assume you have pulled the power supply and resoldered it and the horizontal driver transformer and regulator ICs.

Could take days, hours or just a few minutes. Tried freeze and heat and raping all over the boards but to no avail. Any tips to check for or remedies that anyone knows of for this unit. P.S. Is it just here, where I'm at or is anyone else not getting any business these days? Haven't had a service call in over 2 weeks and hardly anyone bringing anything in for repairs. Just people wanting to give me their old set so they can buy a new one. I think that the Tv repair industry is doomed.
