Default Sony tube tv going bad?

Hi!

Looks like I'll have to replace it.


Why? A little investigation might reveal something very obvious, especially
if it made a loud noise. It could well have *been* a bulb exploding due to
age or something else. If it was on at the time, a failing bulb could have
blown an internal fuse or popped a circuit breaker.

Don't know what to tell you about the TV, but your range is very likely to
be fixable with some basic troubleshooting. It's worth a shot and will cost
less than replacment.
