I have a Goodmans 1430R 14" Standard CRT TV bought some 10 years ago. It has always worked fine without trouble, being switched on very regularly and not left on standby more than about 12 times in it's lifetime. Last Sunday night, between 9:00 and 10:00 pm, it simply switched off in the middle of a program and we have been unable to switch it back on since, no matter how we tried. We opened it up and had a peek inside. It's inner circuitry all appears normal (nothing heavily scorched or melted), so I am wondering how on Earth it could be fixed. One thing to note: our area has recently seen a few power surges. 240v AC supply, working fine. A 5A fuse in the plug which has definitely not blown. The flex to the TV is OK. Also a smaller fuse on the main circuit board of the TV, again looks fine. In other words, EH?! ?!?!?!
Try replacing the internal fuse.
Oh come on man the sets tired!!!LOL no really you got plenty of use out of this bugger. Your problem sounds like something opened in the power supply and since the sets all solid state theres no user serviceable parts inside them. If you really wanted to put cash into a 10 year old set for an estimate/? i would not . But if you like the set go for it. Good luck
