I have a Hitachi 50EX12B (50" Projection TV purchased in 1996) that
stopped working a few weeks ago. My investigation leads me to believe
that there is a short in the flyback transformer (part# 2436493).
However, I called every Hitachi authorized distributor in America and
they are all out of stock and the part was discontinued last year.
Does anyone know where I could get one of these?
