Have at it, but buy the service manual from the generic manufacturer, buy
the required test instruments, and required supplies. Also read Sam's
excellent site illustrating the need for specific safety requirements before
you even attempt to open the set, let alone service it by removing a
"board".
As He said, have it done professionally!!

Unfortunately, it's not worth doing unless I do it myself. I found a new
replacement set for $188, and I've been told the shops in our area will
charge me at least $100 to fix it . They all want $50 just to tell me how
much it will cost to fix (the $50 becomes part of the repair price if they
get my go ahead to fix it).

Just hate to simply throw the old one away. Thought possibly I could fix
it
myself.
