Start by replaceing the degaussing thermosistor.

I am sure that because of the age of the set, there must be many

soft.

It is coming time to let the set bite the dust, and start shopping for
a new one. TV has changed a lot since that set was made.

Any idea in general, what went south on this TV? Yesterday it still had a great
picture. Thanks!
