Posted - Nov 28 2007 : 2:38:15 PM My TV was taking 10-15 minutes to turn on, it turned on and off repeatedly until it "warmed-up". To avoid the hassle i kept the TV on at all times. Then yesterday I accidentally turned it off and i haven't been able to turn it on since. When its plugged in it makes a high pitched sound. I opened it up but couldn't find anything obviously wrong with it, i did however find that the sound was coming from around the power supply. I have included a few pictures and a video, just follow the link below.
Thank you in advance for all your help.
Here is the link with the pics and the video www.infected.ca/tv |

Posted - Nov 30 2007 : 9:10:01 PM Hey Guru, thanks for taking the time to reply! I guess I'll just look there. I've been reading a book and the guy said to get a few service manuals so that I have them and he said if I can get them for free then all the better.
Thanks again |

Posted - Nov 30 2007 : 4:19:14 PM I keyed the model nimber of my Sony TV into Google. Many links wanted me to buy a service manual but I found a few for free. Google also linked to guys talking about the same TV and the same problem as mine. |

Posted - Nov 28 2007 : 3:38:19 PM Don't you have a camera that takes clear pics? Tou don't troubleshoot a TV from pics. You take voltage and signal measurements and compare them with the measurements in the service manual.
