ICS What are ICS and where are the fuses located?

I'm guessing your talkin about convergance ic's. if so they are located on the biggest heat sync in the set. should be two ic's on it, enless it is one huge ic's.
The fuses are usually located at the back of the set usually next to a small transformer. they are usually not glass fuses but solid green small and they are soldered in the board. you can check them with any ohm meter and they should check shorted. your meter should read 0 when you test them.
you may have to hold your meter on the fuse for up to 10 seconds to make sure it stays on 0.
the ic's are flat and sit up vertically on the heat sync.
if your confused and dont want to try it, then i would recomend you get a local service center to do it for you.
