Sony KE-32TS2 Plasma with Sparkles

[crtfool]

Does anyone have a procedure for fixing a problem with Sparkles on this model TV? I replaced a blown power supply on this set last year. The only adjustment on the power supply is a multi-position switch that was set and glued in place from the factory - it was set to the same position as the defective power supply.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

I had good luck in replacing the Vs capacitors (the big can electrolytics.) In mine they were bulged. Sparkles are still there, but much less, maybe only three or four on the entire screen every frame, which might be due to the panel aging or due to some other caps, but it's far better than it was.

The caps in mine were Samyoung KMH 560uF 250V and were replaced with Chemi-Con KMH 560uF 250V.
