Hi again everyone. Picked this one up yesterday and paid a decent sum since the only issue was that the HDMI ports don't work and I was able to verify that first. Component, Composite, and VGA inputs function normally.
Now, on to question 1. I would certainly assume that there is nothing else that could cause the fault other than the main board? When I plug in an HDMI cable I get the 'connecting' and 'retrieving data' messages followed by a 1080i in the upper right corner but then black screen with no sound. All three inputs act the same way. I'm pretty sure this is not easily repairable.
Question 2. Does anyone know where I can find a board for this at a reasonable price? I researched before buying this and thought I had one located for around $70. However, once I pulled the back off of it when I got home I realized mine had a different version of board. The T-con is built in on mine and apparently it's rarer this way. The cheapest one I can find is $142.
Any help is appreciated as always and I hope I can find something for $100 or under. I have a buyer for it or I wouldn't have gotten it to begin with and at $142 my profit isn't looking to good.
Thanks,
Aaron
