RCA HD52W58 Picture not working / Sparking in back.

We have an RCA Model # HD52W58. We came home after camping over the weekend and the picture was not working on the TV. The volume works but the picture does not. After a few seconds, the green power button would flash and the TV shuts off. Looking through the grate in the back of the TV while turning the power on, we noticed some sparking in the back at the bottom near the flat circuit board. Any ideas of what it would take to fix this problem?

    I took of the back panel and I found a capacitor (I think that is what it is called) at the front of the circuit board that was burnt and split in half? I can't get the complete number above it.
    Is this something I can replace or do I need the whole board that it was attached to?? And do you have any idea what I might be looking at cost-wise?

Maybe there is a lizard inside, open the back cover then remove the PCB. re solder the damaged area and clean it with an electronic spray cleaner. check for cold solder component leads and re solder it.

HOW CAN I GET THE HD PICTURE CLEARER?

Hi there.
To answer your question;
Since you said that you can`t use hdmi/dvi your next best choice would be component video input(3 rca cables).
Your next choice would be svideo in.
It may improve your picture over standard cable in.
hope this help. Happy holiday

Green light stays on but no picture

This is very hard to know the problem. A lot more info is needed to know about voltages on the inside of the tv. I would say to take it to a repair man.

Problem with rca hd52w58 52" tv

This can be a green crt or green driver pcb problem. You can try and unplug the tv for 30 min. and plug it back in and turn it on, but the problem will most likly still be there. A repair shop will need to fix it from there.

Rca Hd52w58 electrical short

Just replace it... it is called the High Voltage Splitter. One red wire is the high voltage input from the flyback (high voltage) transformer, 3 red wires are the high voltage outputs that go to the 3 picture tubes and the red wire by itself is the focus wire going to the focus block. Does your splitter have a small PC board on the side of it? What is the exact model or chassis number of your set? With that info I can give you the RCA part number of the splitter which makes ordering it much easier.
