hi,

there might be a problem on the power supply , it may not have enough to power up the horizontal deflection circuits.

maybe the supply rail B+ is only about 45V or still lower
solution : replace the horizontal deflection flyback transformer maybe partially shorted

maybe no voltage at all
solution : check horizontal output transistor might be defective, replace if found shorted

maybe there is a good supply say at least 110V , but no oscillator drive on the horizontal output transistor, or blocked oscillator signal drive

hope this helps, thanks for using Fixya!

Resetting the TV
If the buttons on the remote AND the buttons on the TV case do not work (channels do not change and you cannot open or navigate the menu), the TV has stopped responding. Reset the TV as follows:

NOTE:
Some TVs have a reset button. If available and accessible, try using the reset buttons before using the steps below. Using the reset buttons can save time.
1. Unplug the TV power cord from the power outlet.
2. Unplug any connected devices (DVD, Set-top boxes, etc...)
3. Press and hold the TV power button for five seconds.
4. Plug the TV power cord back into the power outlet and turn on the TV.
5. Open the on-screen menu to confirm that the TV is responding again.
6. Turn off the TV and reconnect the devices.
7. Turn on the TV.
If ever resetting is no effect then the problem is in the "DM board"

Hope it may help you;

Regards;
