The TV does turn on and there is a picture, but the red, green and blue colors do not line up correctly. Convergence problem.
This set is fairly easy to fix for this trouble. A AV48p30 usually takes me about 40 minutes to fix for this problem.
It uses two of the STK-392-110 convergence chips. The repair involves two things--getting at the chips (easy) and being able to unsolder them and replace them.
You can buy almost everything you will need on Ebay for under 30 dollars (I can tell you who to look for there)
Most shops are going to get 300 or more for this kind of repair so if you or someone you know can do it you can save a lot of money.
I can tell you how to get at the chips and also everything you will need to do the repair.
