When you say blank screen and no picture, does that mean you still have sound?
Ok. What is the status of the LED at the front? If its blinking, then count the number of blinks in between each pause and let me know.
Ok. That error code is not listed in the service manual but based on your description of the problem, it sounds likeyou have a bad HOT. By running the tv despite of the fault , you have probably damaged a few other components that are causing the HV to drop. I have a list of possible sources of failure that can cause this problem, but as I have said before these are part of the HV circuit. It may not be such a good idea to do it yourself if you have not worked on HV electronics before.
By HOT I mean Horizontal Output Transistor. Sorry got used to the lingo!
You can purchase it online. But first you should locate the component itself and get me number written on it EX: Q401 . If you can get me this then I can tell you where to buy it. Note that replacing this component requires soldering skills.
Expect a charge of about 100-150$

No there is no sound. My husband may think there's not power going to the TV. We have the TV set up on a surge protector.
no there is no sound or picture...
it's blinking and 3 blinks in between each pause
Where do I purchase a Horizontal Output Transistor?
Ok, will not be able to repair myself. Can you tell me the estimated cost to have a repair service come out and repair?
