THEY CAME AND TOLD ME THAT FUSES ARE BAD AND NEED A NEW REGULATOR AND GAVE ME ROUGH ESTIMATE OF $ 250. HE WENT TO SHOP AND FAXED ME ESTIMATE OF $ 428.83. HE WROTE "IN DESCRIPTION OF WORK TO BE PERFORMED " NEEDS POWER SUPPLY REPAIRED. I ASKED HIM TO GIVE ME BETTER DETAIL SO I CAN COMPARE APPLE TO APPLE. HE SENT ME ANOTHER ESTIMATE AND TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD EXCATLY THE SAME TV NEEDED NEW POWER DEF PWB AND GAVE ME ESTIMATE OF $ 805.92 HOW CAN YOU TRUST THIS TECHNICIAN WHAT DO i DO ?

is there a red led glowing, and are the green leds out? if you have red and green leds which of the green ones is out?
Is can the c707 be changed easily with the board still in the tv? The C707 in mine has a burn mark through it and I have the replacement. It looks tricky to get in there with a soldering iron and replace. Should the board be removed or can it be done without removing the board? I am also confused as to the discharging of the residual power. It has been unplugged for a couple of days, but I did not understand the diagram on the front cover to discharge the system. Any advice? Thanks!!!
