Re: TV Problem
First thing to check is if the AC outlet it is plugged in to is 'live' - the breaker on that circuit may have tripped.
If the AC is there and it still will not turn on, then it will be necessary to dive inside. If you are not comfortable with that then it is time for a trip to the repair shop (or a new TV). |

|  I'm pretty sure the jack is working since the radio was plugged into the same one and our vcr and all had power.
I dont mind opening it up and so on. I work on computers all the time. But is it possible to get a bad shock from it even if its unplugged?
also what should I look for?
If its to expensive to fix then we will be buying a new one.
Thanks

Chances are the horizontal output transistor is blown.
Easy fix if you know what you are doing.
Dangerous, possibly fatal task if you don't.
CRT's can store a large amount of energy for days even weeks after a TV has been sitting unplugged. A 27 inch this voltage could be in the range of 25-30KV, yes 30,000 volts 
So if you do not know what you are doing then take it to a shop. |
