BTW, i dont have a remote for it, to get into service menu, but of course it
doesnt matter, because there is no HV, raster, or filiment. Just sound.

see, thats the problem. I live off of social security, and I dont have 100
dollars to put in a board.

I understand the flyback is 60, but its not bad. I ring tested it.

I need to disable shutdown of the scan circuity, and someone here with a
schematic can tell me.

Looking for input into whether this June 1996 build TV is worth having
repaired.

TV has worked great since purchase in 1996. Never got a great deal of
use...maybe 10 hours a week on weekends to watch mainly movies on DVD
or HBO. I figure less than 4000 hours total use. Set had been on for
about 4 hours one day and the picture just went blank...like someone
turned it off. No warning of trouble before that...no picture fade or
blooming, it just went dark. Sound still works OK.

The TV is long out of warranty but due to it's light use I was
thinking it might be worth repairing. Can anyone give me an idea how
much would be a fair rate for a repairman to come out and diagnose (I
live in Philadelphia, PA)? What's an average repair cost on a 35"
set? I realize the repair costs would be on top of the initial
estimate depending on what is wrong. On that note, are my TV's
symptoms indicative of a common problem? Based on my novice research
I think it could be a high voltage problem.

The neighborhood repair guy went out of business about three years
ago. Choosing a repair service, I'm finding, is almost impossible to
decide on blindly.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
