[TV] Re: LCD TV's



 
My opinion again: If we just let the TV work for a couple hours and check  
for temperature after that ,that will give us a clue if the Z or the Y will last 
 for some time,from now on I will star using my meter with temperature  
readings,when I say check for temperature<I am talking about the Heat Zinc on  
those boards, you remember in the past,if you install the wrong HOT  
transistor,that will over heat and eventually will go out, I will try to records  those 
temperatures to find out what is normal,you remember your doctor,before He  
release you from the Hospital,one of the things He check for, is your  
temperature,maybe in the future with this new technology we may have to start  acting like 
a doctor.-  Tito

I  have replaced just the y sustain board , but set comes back in a month  -- 
 
now I replace both y and z together - no more  problem...
