Hello,
My sister's, who's living abroad, has a vs-5043 that won't turn on.
after clicking the power button, it will turn on and turn off
instantly. Any idea?
much appreciated.

Power supply, deflection problems, probably a lot of electrolytic caps going
south. Best to have a service company that is familar with these sets to
address it.

VZ3 chassis, 1996. Not a lot of bad caps in these. Many coolant leaks.
Basic troubleshooting necessary on this one.

pwr supply, C5A19 100uf 16v near MS plug. Hope it helps you out, -Mike
