Ben, I sent a reply to you two days ago. Maybe you missed it. Will try it again. I don't have anything on that model, but that is a common problem on large Sony's. There is a black choke about the size of your thumb that fails and a transistor nearby (on a heat sink, I think) that is leaky. The choke may be L501, the transistor Q505 (2SD3298). If you still need the service manual, try Fulton, 1-800-248-0898. Hope this helps, Ken Smith Gulf Technical Services 3034 Gulf Breeze Parkway Gulf Breeze, FL 32561 850-934-8324 (Voice) 850-932-0819 (Fax) ----------------------------- On Thu, 20 Sep 2001 09:09:54 -0500 "Ben Daniels" <benstv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes: > > Sory to ask for help with so very little imfo.
