Re: Sony 46" LCD possible bad panel

It all depends on the price and how much time and money you are willing to risk. I have worked on one that was worse and fixed it.

Some people want $300-$400 just because they paid a fortune for it back then when it was new. I won't pay more than $100 with the remote. Most are for less and one was for free if I removed it from the wall mount and took it away, but it was missing a stand.

It looks like on e of those bad side panel tab with bad voltage problem, if you search for resistor mod for SONY LCD panel repair on the web or you tube, you will see alot of hit.

No, not a resistor mod set. I have done a couple of those. Those symptoms are very different and affect the entire screen with slow motion and dull colors. The screens I have worked on showed primarily red with few other colors.

The guy is selling for $75 but I might be able to talk him down since nobody's shown any interest besides me. I'd be willing to put maybe around $100 into it, as long as that's a longterm fix.

$75 is a fair price, with the remote. Lower is always better. Buy a pak of the vinyl bumpers from Crappy Tire. You will also need a 2x4 x24 inch piece of wood. Let me know when you are ready to work on it.

You snooze, you lose. A lot of these have worked themselves out of circulation. Either scrapped, traded or patched with a poor repair or even fixed. I have not seen any listed for sale for 3-4 months.

Here's the situation when I turn on the TV and after half hour, turn it off and back on and the image comes back (4th image) but with a portion with different quality, with a horizontal line start from nothing on right to very visible on the left end.
