KD-34XBR970 CRT HDTV startup problem

This is a failure in the vertical amp section. One way to troubleshoot it is to get a can of freeze spray and use it on the suspect components. The other way is to inspect all the solder joints on the amp. Last would be to check voltages on the board. Since it does change with run time, it is being affected by heat.

52 Inch RCA D52W17 BYX1 projection screen tv cuts off when i TURN ON

The set literally has a 3 strikes and you are out where it will try three times and go to shutdown.

The common issues this set has are bad solder connections under and around the high voltage transformer and also in some cases the High voltage splitter block (located way up front behind lower grill below screen unit and behind a removable inspection plate).

The transformer rarely fails but can--photo of what is general appearance of this type of part is attached.

Hi,

Not familiar with your actual model.

But a comon problem with older Tosh sets is the 2.2uf electrolytic caps from memory they are usually red there is 1 next to frame Ic & the second is near Psu.

Allso check frame o/p IC for dry solder joints this is easy to test for.

Tap the tv while it is on if the the frame suddenly pop to full size picture you know its dry joints so resolder frame IC.
