The Hitachi part number is CP08451U, btw. I just read your replay and I am
at the shop where I could check it. The latest version that I have received
from Hitachi is the MCZ3001DB and they have worked fine in the Sony sets.

Most likely one of the regulator ICs. You need to start by changing the
MCZ3001D in both the HV and Horizontal drive circuits. They are cheapest
if you buy them under the Hitachi part number rather than the Sony, which
I do not recall at this time.

If that is not the fix, you could have any number of problems and these
are difficult to troubleshoot. The next most likely thing would be the
flyback. The ICs fix most of them.

I am having some problems with this 36" tv. Sometimes it will turn on
and sometimes it won`t. I had it on all day last Sunday and shut it off
and the next day it would not turn on. It will make the usual clicking
noises from the relays and the standby light blinks, but thats it. I
have tried to hit the side to see if I had a bad solder joint or to see
if something might be loose, but it was no use. I do have a service
manual for this and according to the 7 blinks from the standby light it
indicates "horizontal deflection stopped". I just wanted to check to see
if someone might have run into this problem on this series of tv before
I jump in and start checking things. Thanks, Rob



Thank you Leonard, I heard something before in reference to an IC in the
power supply. I will pop them in and hope as this is a very complicated
piece of equipment. I been working on electronic equipment for years, but
this would be a head ache for the most experienced! Rob
