Thanks, I appreciate the concern.
I've left the tv unplugged since this morning for that very reason. Is it
not wise to assume that ~12 hours will drain pretty much everything in a
standard tv?

I strongly urge you not to work on your set then. I've taken a
professional course(1 year) and extra electronics (also another year),
and I have had plenty of minor shocks.
Don't let your first shock be the last....

I'm a bit new to the TV game (my background is in computing and some
small
electronics), could you possibly give me some pointers on locating these
items?
Thanks again,

Remove L14401 in the base circuit of the horiz output. Clean all glue
off
leads and solder pads, reinsert the coil and resolder it to the pads.
Also
check soldering aroung LOPT.

Hi All,
I've got a ~28" RCA "Entertainment Series" TV. It's a little over
2
years
old (just out of warranty, of course), and the picture is totally
gone.
Sound is working fine.
A couple days ago, I noticed when I turned it on, I heard what I
assume
is
some type of relay click (per normal), then a couple seconds later,
it
clicked off again, and the tube never lit. I tried it 2x more
times,
and
the 2nd time it worked. I chalked it up to a quirk, but it left a
bad
feeling in my stomach. Tonight I went to turn it on, I heard the
click,
then it "clicked off" again. No picture it all, and picture never
comes
up.
Ive tried leaving it unplugged for a couple hours, wondering if
there
was
some time-delay reset, but no such luck.
Anyone have some ideas on what might be wrong, and if there's an
easy
fix?
I'm hesitant to take it to a shop, but I should possibly do that.
I'd
rather
just pop out the right fuse and be back in business. 
TIA,
Dave
