I was just told my HItachi 46UX50B needs a new high voltage transformer, but they want $500 to fix it. The tv is 10 years old...but I found a replacement part for it for $100. Anyone know how difficult it is to change that out? I'm very handy with everything, but never messed with tv's before. Thanks for any assistance!
Hello Bour,Its not too Bad,You gonna need a Couple of Things,Solder Wick,And a Soldering Gun,As you Pull ooff the Back of the Set.Youll find Probley 8 Screws Holding the Deflection Module(that will be the One with The High Voltage Tranformer on it(IHVT)You will have to look good on the board for all screws.....The Red lead tha come out of the IHVT Push down and Turn it should Come loose,The follow the g2 Lead to a Screen focus Bluck and pull on it it will come loose from it Note wher this lead came from,Once you have the Board loose,Turn it over and Put the Solder wick on the Connections and apply Heat,Solder will be sucked up by the Wick and you do this with each Conn,Till the IHVT is Loose(Note)Solderwick is available at Radioshack,Hope this Helps Perry

I have a similar problem. When power button is pushed it shuts down immediately. Before turning on the power button . Inside the red led is lit with several green leds are lit. As soon as the power button is depressed all leds go out. Unplug and plug back in, all leds lite up. Though some do not seem to have the brightness as others. As soon as powe r button is depressed all go out. I need some direction in trouble shooting this problem.
Thanks
Mike
