Many thanks for your reply.
Wow!, it sounds like I might have dodged a bullet here !!

I've the tv unplugged from the mains.

I'm away from home from now until Friday so I wont be able to look at the back of the tv until then, when I do I'll will report back what I find. It will be left powered down for now.

Many thanks,
Dave.

Thanks
Dave....

Hi everyone,
I came across this site looking for a problem I've got with a TV. I've also repaired other hifi equipment in the past, amplifiers and turntables. I'm knowledgeable about electronics and I'm a service engineer for the company I work for. So I hope I can talk the lingo
