out of warranty. Was plugged into a surge protector. I unplugged it, plugged it back in. Hit the power button, light turns on for 5 sec and turns off. The screen never turns on just stays black. Checked the fuse on the power supply board, its fine.
Im assuming that the surge (from a near by lighting strike) came in through one of two entries. Through the power cord, or through the cable line.
I also checked all capacitors and no obvious signs of damage ( non are bulging).
I dont know what to do next. I dont want to haul this huge tv anywhere. (52 inches). I see a power supply board, and a video board for sale online.
I guess my question is how to tell which one is damaged? Anyone out there that can direct my on what to do? oh please help me......
