It took me this long to take a better look at the TV. The flyback
transformer is fine, if I pull the pip board I get the menu on the
screen. I reset the pip board and things seemed to be working fine,
but after a few hours it was back to the clicking problem I originally
had.

Another site suggested some cold solder joints, but I'm not seeing them
or finding them with a meter. I could start replacing a few suggested
components, but it's not quite obvious that one of them has failed.
Anyone have a suggestion on where I could buy a replacement board (RCA
model F36665)?

My 7 year old 36" RCA TV stopped working about 3 weeks ago. I'd try
turning it on, I'd hear 3-6 clicks that sounded like the relay clicks
during power-on, and then it would stop with nothing happening. I've
been too busy to troubleshoot it so far, but that was my plan.

An old neighbor of mine called about his 5 year old Sony 36" WEGA
doing the same thing, right down to the click count. I thought I
better ask on here if this is a semi-common problem before tackling it
blindly, since I'm merely a wanna-be tech and not a full-fledged TV
repair person.

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
