My 14 year old Mitsubishi 35" console has finally given up the ghost.
For awhile it was having a problem with the vertical. When turning the
set on there would only be a single horizontal line running across the
screen. A shart rap to the side of the box would get the vertical back
again. There was also an intermittent problem with the set not turning
on. It would click on and then a few seconds later shut off. Well now
it doesn't turn on at all anymore. Just clicks on and then shuts itself
off. I know nothing about TV repair, though I did repair mainframe
computers years ago and my wife is currently a computer hardware
engineer. Not sure it's worth having a repair person look at given how
cheap you can get large tube TV's now. Anyone have any opinions on
whether it's worth fixing? The console is in great shape. If anyone in
cental MA is interested in a non functional CK-3526R for parts let me
know. You would have to take the whole thing.

You want give it up or you want to try a repair ? Probably something in
the vertical deflection short-circuited... and the tv goes in protection
mode. It isn't complicated, you can start opening the tv and seeing where
the two vertical yoke cables end. Then you can see the vertical deflection
circuit... an IC... or more simply open the tv and see what ics are in...
