Hi all,
Have had this TV since 2011 and it's worked wonderfully. No interest in getting a new TV right now...
Had just reactivated ANT input to mess around and see if I could find some OTA channels when I got a *pop* and the TV turned off. When I turn it back on I get a solid red light but if I press and hold the power button it gives me the 14 blinks. This is "locked mode", correct?
From reading on these boards, seems like SN is usually the culprit. Have tested as follows:
1) Unplugged SN2/P2 and P11/SS11
2) Tested P2-1 and P2-3 for continuity: No
3) Tested SN2-1 and SN2-3 for continuity: Yes (similarly, red lead on SN2 pin 1 and black lead on the chassis [the grey metal behind the board, right?] beeps)
4) Finally, red lead on SS11 pin 1 and black lead on chassis = no beep/continuity
(continuity here indicates a short, right?)
Troubleshooting guide says to replace SC, which is SN on my model correct?
For what it's worth, there is a screw on the SN board that seems just a bit less than completely tight, but I don't see anything clearly amiss.
Where do I go from here? Want to make sure it's the SN board and not something else...
