You spend £24 on parts when you can buy a new used PSU for £18 on eBay?

other bits and bobs also, be less if minimum order was less than 5 for most things
Also got 2 other things to repair, which 1 is also made by vestel under other brand so likely will have the same parts on it.

Also forgot about fleabay
*shrugs* Practice also, learning experience.

Ok still no go
Replaced both caps with those suggested and replaced a few other caps that looked suspect.
Repaired the IDTV board also.

Next tried unhooking the IDTV board, still nothing, LED lights up blue on the front, power it on, nothing.

So now really scratching my head....

Think that damp might have gotten in or the panel is goosed, large darker S shape in the middle of the screen when an strong LED torch is shone at it.
Rats....learning curve, chalk things up to experience methinks...

Well as someone else said to me, "your soldering has improved" so thats one plus, at worst I'll salvage the caps etc from the boards.
Unless anyone else needs parts from the TV.
drat thought I was onto a free telly there....:/

Keep the main board and DTV board. You should be able to get £20 for main board, £10 for DTV. If it has an easily accessible inverter, that's worth at least £20. When removing the main board note down the panel model number -- it will be locked to this panel (though it can be changed.)

Re: Sanyo CE26LD81-B TV Troubleshooting

Fair enough, thanks for the advice
Much appreciated.
I was actually going to ask if a panel from a different display could be used to test the boards. (I have a 27" Baier TV with a working 720p panel)
Likely just strip it for parts and ditch what I can't sell.
Thanks again for your help.
Next....perhaps try and sort the baier out or my 24" el cheapo 1080 monitor.
