Bad Solder A friend of mine has a Hitachi 53UWX10B and ran into the convergence IC problem. He unwisely attempted a self repair and really screwed up the pcb. He then calls me to laugh and point since he didn't ask for my help in the first place... Anyway, is there any way possible to replace the whole pcb that the dcu sits on? If so, do they sell a replacement with a dcu and ic's already on the pcb? If not, is it as simple as ordering a new pcb unsoldering the old dcu buying the IC replacement(s) and resistors for the board and soldering them back? Alternately, is there anywhere to look for that might find working parts from broken tv's or remanufacture broken tv parts? working parts from broken tv's or remanufacture broken tv parts?

Yea, i know i'll replace again and diagnose and reflow some connections if i can't just find a replacement, however, i don't want to spend too much time helping him out.

Thanks for your help guys, i replaced all of the resistors and the IC's and then checked every connection with the multimeter. In some cases I had to reflow some of the connections on the pcb and it is now working great! Additionally, however, the magic focus still errors out with an error code number 3 any ideas?
