    Mitsubishi wd-73734 chirping and no picture

    I may pick up this dlp tv for repair. Symptoms are chirping sound and no picture.All I find in searching is a possible ballast board issue.
    Is anyone familiar with this and is it worth paying ($40) for and fixing?
    I am willing to invest up to $100 ($60 for parts)

    After looking at the parts at SJ I don't know if I want to invest almost $200.

    Hmm, interesting gamble for a 73 inch TV 1080p.

    If you watch a lot of blu-ray movies it could be worth it?

    I wonder if these videos

    has similar technology found in the 73 inch TV? If yes, you may have more potential problems with this set.

    BTW, norcal715 seems to answer youtube questions so maybe ask him what is most likely probable cause?

      T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
      by Tr0ll
      Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

      The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

      Original T-con:
      Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

      First replacement T-con:

      I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

      Mitsubishi HS-E82 VCR Bad Picture
      by hugocarmo
      Good morning everyone.
      This time I have a Mitsubishi HS-E82.
      It was a bargain that I found with original remote included.
      The problem reported by the owner is that it was working but no output video.
      I took it appart and immediately saw that three 470uf capacitors were leaking on the signal board and one in the Hi-Fi board the same value too. I have located them in the pictures in red marker.
      I replaced them, cleaned all the liquid remains and the video output got working again.
      I saw too that were three surface mounted capacitors, two near the 470uf and...

      SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
      by JJAAMM
      This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

      Problem
      TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

      Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
      by TR103
      Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
      - sound and backlight, but no picture
      - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
      - it keeps rebooting
      - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
      - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
      - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

      - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

      Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
      by Mgiffune
      I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

      I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and
