GE 31gt660 tv - squeals when power cord plugged in
By Phoebe - usenet poster
GE TV model 31gt660, 5-6 years old.
The tv does not do anything other than squeal/whistle/hiss, or
whatever you want to call it, when you plug it in. Does not turn on.
took the back off of it and sound seemed to be coming from a
transformer, though its hard to tell. Has anyone seen this problem
before, or have any ideas on what it is and how it can be fixed?
I got this TV from a friends uncle, apparently it just started having
this problem one day just out of the blue. He didnt tell me that
anything abnormal happened to the TV to cause this. thanks a bunch.
