Thanks for the info.. Repair tech was here today and fixed also adjusted the convergence(sp) settings. It turned out to be the Horz Filler Cap. He installed a new one and fixed other loose parts- sodered (sp). Cheaper than i thought $225 that was with $85 service call..

Thanks Again

these set is what i like to call VAlue sets.. you can get these for 800 at walmart. If you smell something theres a good chance its what is called a flyback transformer... i repair that averages about 300 to replace. Caution it may be more. DANGER, Do not attempt repair of set unless qualifed to do so tv generte high and leathal voltages.
