A quick check to determine if the convergence modules are bad is to completely unsolder them then fire the set up for a few seconds to see if set remains on. This removes the load from the supply which allows the set to run.

Originally brought in convergence board because it had the common failure IC's, but could not find anything open or shorted. Went back installed and pulled main chassis and replaced vertical output IC and 3 caps that did not check too well. The Ic was slightly darkened. I can't find anything else but was wondering if I should check anything else out on this chassis before taking it back and try. The unit would try to power up in the home and i could here the high voltage try to start.
