JackB1;.... I do NOT repair LED/LCD or Plasma TVs... A lot of the new sets on the market nowadays is PURE , out & out JUNK !!! I decided long ago that this old dog wasn't ready for new tricks & retired.. Some of the reasons are crappy service manuals , little or NO parts available , some of the parts are hugely expensive & some manufacturers give crappy in-warranty service , etc , etc.. NOTHING like the GREAT service & part availability from the CRT TV manufacturers of ye old days.. Due to the attitude of this new breed of TV manufacturers (MOST being CHINESE !!!) a HUGE number of these sets are filling up landfills & could be salvaged IF parts & DECENT service manuals were available.. And a HUGE waste of electronic materials & landfill space... Not to mention a waste of hard earned money from the consumer.. You'll find that the life expectancy of the older CRT TVs is WAAAAYYY LOONNNGGGEEERR than these new sets... BTW:... May I suggest;... When you go shopping for a new TV , try changing the channels on the showroom TV using the buttons ON the side or bottom of the TV.. IF & when someone approaches you & asks what the hell you are doing , tell him/her that you are looking for a FAST channel changing TV... IF they are interested in selling you a TV , they should be able to accommodate your wishes & show you how fast/slow some of the TV are... IF not , tell them you are going to go to another store that does... That may irritate their hemorrhoids enough to do something about it...... Have fun with that...... Later...Ron.M......
