HI I am electronically challenged. My picture is cutting in and out every 30 seconds or so. This happends on all channels. It fades out, keeping all sound, then fades back in. The JVC flat screen TV is only 3 yrs old bought new @ Best Buy. Not near heat, no fancy system connected...just DVD player and TV. What should I do to repair it? thanks, JE
JE, I just repaired one of these on Friday last week. Video on the right side was darker than the left and quite noticeable. After about an hour of trace testing I got out my trusty ESR meter and found C545 35v/220uf had a extremely high equivilent series resistance. replacing that cap restored normal picture. What I'm trying to get to if I wasn't so long winded is, it sound to me like it's probably cap related and not a relatively expensive repair. Take it to a good reputable shop though.. If you're not sure how to find one goto: http://www.nesda.com/locator/state_search.php and input your info. That's the National Electronic Service Dealer's Assn. Kind of like going to the AMA to find a doctor. Take the set in your self too and you'll save a few bucks there. if you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask: 306-642-4993 Good Luck Bill
