D838 was a 4.7v zener. Replaced that along with almost every small glass switching diode in and around the SMPS area. Had replaced the opto-isolator IC,PS reg IC801, the vertical output, audio output,etc. most of the "800" series glass diodes,all shorted. The final fix part was an SE139 regulator IC802. I bet I invested 20+ tech-hrs on this. Far more than I normally would.I've totalled tvs with less severe storm damages. But, he's a good customer who just days before the storm picked it up with a hefty bill for the previous fix,no complaints.(previously it had picture distortion,but not dead)Then a bad storm.Zapp! back to the shop. I promised to waive the labor this time tho no fault of mine. This puppy was smacked by lightning. Phil Bader Philip Bader Jan Phyl TV Inc. (estab. 1976) 3420 Recker Hwy.
