Bad convergence, now wont turn on at all.

Tools and skills must have.Tools,a soldering iron,desoldering pump or desoldering braids,solders?Skills,must know how to do the basic soldering?Tries websites like Tvrepairworld.com,Tvrepairkits.com to buy the convergence kit to repair it ur self.A kit also came with a instructional DVD disc.The shop,will cost u $300-350 for parts and labors.

This tv have a problems known as a conveegence problems,it dead.The tv convergence board must have it 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all it resistors to be replaced to solved the convergence problems.The shop will cost u $300-350 for parts and labors.

Please listen and try this:

When the power light comes on and goes off, on the front of the set press BOTH the Menu and Input (Device) buttons at the SAME time and HOLD them both for at least five seconds and then release both.

The power light will blink a two digit error code and will repeat it about 5 times. To get it to repeat you would have to unplug the set and turn it on again etc.

The most common error is 2 blinks, pause, 2 blinks.

Let me know what error code you find and I will direct you as to what it means and what may have to be done.

You need a convergence repair kit. You can get one at www.tvrepairworld.com

Did the set work after the tech replaced the caps?
Is the work under warranty?
Bad convergence amps would be the first suspect.
Press and hold the menu and device buttons at the same time on the set (not the remote). The led should blink an error code. If it blinks 2 times then 3 times, it is probably the convergence amps.

no, if blink code the problem is in the TV set--cable will not cause this type of trouble

Mine did the same thing. It was too much money to invest in old technology. I chucked that baby to the curb and got a 42" LCD. LOVE IT!!

You might have a bad power supply or convergence circuit, I also suggest you to check for fluid spill on the circuit board. if the convergence is defective one of the 5A picofues on the power supply is open. Hope this help you.
