I try to turn it on but nothing happens

Let me know if the power light on the front of the set blinks----most of these sets have a error code--Also confirm actual model number to me and I will assist you.

For example: 1 blink a pause 1 blink etc is short on 140 volt line.

A sequence of 3 blinks pause, 3 blinks etc is SHORT PROTECTION---I CAN INSTANTLY TELL YOU WHAT THIS MEANS.

There is one other very common problem with this model---There is a CAPACITOR in the high voltage
circuit that fails a lot on this set---it is not an expensive part and I can tell you how to find it--on a few sets it will take a transistor near it out--

Usually if the cap or transistor are gone you may not get a error code----if just the cap is bad sometimes you will after a few minutes with the set on see a band of white noise to the middle or right side of the screen----I HAVE SEEN OVER 50 OF THESE SETS WITH THIS CAP BAD.

I can, if you are able to solder etc---tell you the best way to get at the suspect parts.

Let me know what you have found.
