I have a sony triniton TV set which has operated for about four years without any problem but one day, as the tv was on, the screen went black showing nothing and some little smoke was seen coming from behind it. What could be the problem or advise me on which probable spares that could be blown. Thanks alot. Josexto.
-   I saw the tip previus posted with the problem of the Sony TV KV-27S20 has a black screen but audio OK. It suggested to veryfy the resistor R587 but i didn't find it. Could some one give me a little help?-   blessman
It's always a bad sign when the magic blue smoke is released from inside the TV set. I would suspect a defective capicator has blown its' top. When the screen went black, did you lose audio also? If you still have audio, it's possible that resistor R587 Opened up which would smoke, (1.5k 1/4 W) And D518 Shorted (Nte558) If you lost audio as well, then it could be a shorted Vertical IC pack. If you're not up to testing and replacing components, the set will need to see a repair shop.

Sony WEGA tube 34" 4.5 years old. The picture hue is all green/yellow/blue - no red. When I select the menu button all the colors are there. Sometimes it fades back to full color, but now most of the time the color/hue is gone. Fixable?

I have a 32" (?) Sony TV that is 12 years old. It is a floor model that is incased in wood with a shelf underneath for DVD player, receiver, etc. with a glass door in the front. Was watching TV 2 nights ago and everything went black and the audio was lost. I haven't tried anything yet. The TV is still in excellent condition and I would like to be able to repair it myself. Any info and cost of parts would be appreciated. Thanks Rick
