AN920 Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Often these TV's have a switching type PSU. They use a high value start-up resistor to get the PSU control circuit going. After that DC gets fed back through a diode blocking circuit to supply the control part of the PSU. Over time these resistors increase in value and have problems supplying enough DC to the control part to start the PSU quickly. Look for and measure all the 100k+ resistors (1/4-1W) that you can see in the PSU section.Example shows a starting resistor in a Sylvania TV's PSU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audioguru Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 I got the service manual and many forums about the same problem with my Sony TV by simply entering its model number in Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
