Our TV has sound but
suzy arata,
This unit has CRTs and does not have a lamp. Most likely you have a problem in the high voltage section. This can be checked with my tip at
http://www.fixya.com/support/r4916941-diagnose_repair_projection_tv_high which explains the problem although it was written with a dead set in mind. It also tells you where to get the best price on parts. There is an outside chance that you could have a video drive issue. This problem would be on the other board (not the board with the high voltage). There really isn't a way for you to troubleshoot this board. If you do not find any problems in the high voltage circuit I would replace the small signal board. Available from

This TV has had a long life. Your picture is looking more yellow these days because the Blue picture tube is wearing out. Not saying the Green and Red tub are much better, but Blue tube is a major player in the picture brightness and white balance (the color of white which the TV reproduces). The cost involved wouldn't be justified. You should enjoy the balance of the TVs life; when it's time comes... have the new TV delivered and ask them recycle this one. Best wishes.

Electrolitic capacitors are the demise of most electronics over the long term. Most last 10 years reliabley. Your tv has approximately 150 of them and is fourteen years old. I would use an esr meter to check for bad ones in the main power supply. If you need a power supply board your estimate for a in home service call is about 450$ plus tax for P&L. by the major players.
Stand by trouble
The TV weighs too much for the Lazy Susan. Those peices are made of Medium Densoti Fiberboard (MDF), and useless for a heavy load. Fix it yourself for under 20 bucks if you have tools. Look at it for few minutes. It will come to you. You need to install a piece of 3/4"plywood( any grade) under the lazy susan top, and then install the good top over it.
It is a 1996 55
