Pioneer Elite Pro-118 rear projection tv

if you are using cable or dss, check the aspect settings on the receiver. if you still have an issue, post a comment and i will help you further.

It is most likely the power supply. Do not try to fix this yourself. There are LETHAL voltages inside such a TV, which can persist for WEEKS after it has been turned off.

horizontal capacitor parts should be replaced...

If you don't mind opening the thing, open it up and follow the power lead inside the TV. Somewhere along the line should be a fuse. I'd start there.

no reset sequence. usually when the protection kicks in without any warning, it's the convergence ICs needing replacement.

if the tv is more than 10 years old no its not worth replacing the power supply.if its 5 years or newer yes it owuld be worth the money

Take off back cover. The problem power board is to the right of the board where the power plug feeds into the TV. There is a large white fuse right bend the power plug. With a meter it read ok; about 8 inches deeper into the TV on that board was the resister next to two fuses. My 4 amp 125 volt fuse did not read on my meter. After replacing, it worked fine. Check all three fuses while you're in there.

Replace conv ICs. This usually does it.

If you have a DIRECTV - push the reset on the Directv receiver.

You most likely have cold solder connections on the convergence IC's or on the B+ sources for the convergence. The longer you wait to have this simple repair done, the worse this will get and cost you double or maybe even triple of what it will cost now. Good Luck
