Hi Techs, This Sony PTV is a 1998 model KP41T65. The set will not turn on until about the 3rd, or 4th try. When the picture comes in, it is in from both sides about 2 inches, and down from the top, and up from the bottom about 2 inches. After about 5 minutes, the picture finally fills the screen, but it looks a little milky, or some what out of focus. They say if it is left on too long, it will shut off,..but I couldn't confirm that. I looked for any signs of fluid leakage, but it looked clean,...I couldn't see any. There don't apear to be any bad connections either. I suspect a bad e-cap in the pwr. supply, but I didn't bring my ckt. coolant spray with me, so I need to make another house call on Thursday. It would be nice if someone could tell me which cap to check first, if they have seen this problem before, so I could take the correct values with me. I want to try and fix this one in the home, if at all possible. Thanks for any help or ideas, LLW LeRoy Westlund Westlund TV & Electronics 97 North Main "Where there's a will,...
