Hi all.
This is my first post, I hope that someone can help me.
I just got a Philips 32" CRT widescreen TV from a friend, since it's broke. The set fires up without problems, there's sound but no image, only some light from the tube, mostly at the top of the screen. When I turn the set off, the screen flashes rapidly.
I've had a quick look at the neckboard, but everything seems fine(by eye, I only measured one resistor)
Are there any 'golden rules' or pointers regarding this problem? I'm not used to working in TV's, so I'm hoping that there's some "That's usually.." etc.
My friend just told me that it began with the image bein gred with lines, if he turned it off then on right away, then it would produce an image. This worked for a long time, before failing completely.
Thanks for your time,
Nicholas
