I know i sound like a grumpy old man, when i say this. but,
How many times does it have to be posted, to check for loose
solder connections, and check electrolytic with ESR meter.
Shoot, i guess i am a grumpy old man.
lol
in all honesty, i dont see the need for 8 people to post a
fix, of check solder connections and electrolytics around the
vertical IC. and the fuse resistor off the flyback, for a
white line symptom, every time some one has that symptom. but
doesnt read the data base, it obvious this is not a tech
making his living fixing tvs.
however i love to read about an unusual symptom and repair,
for instance the coil in the CTC203, not making connection due
to varnish on leads , but not after the 50th time.
Also thank you's are appreciated, but could be part of the
report of the repair success.
I still love this list and read every post though.
I should just delete this message and be quiet, sorry
just my thoughts this morning,
Larry
