Question about RCA F27450 27" TV
Sounds like you have a bad picture tube. It would not be worth replacing.

Not common in the past but it seems as though now sets are not produced with the quality control of previous models. If you are willing to spend a little money you could take it to a shop and get an estimate for $50 - $80. It could be something else, but when components fail they do not work again except for the picture tube. There is a long shot it could be a solder joint. The new solder without lead in it is causing alot of problems. It is brittle and cracks very easily. Usually though a cracked solder joint takes longer to trigger the problem than a few minutes, due to the heating necessary to expand the board and break the connection. These would be the options you could take. Let me know if you need anymore help.

Thank you for your answer. Is it common for this to happen on a set that's only a year old (just past the warranty date)?
