Going to see if I can fix old busted TV so kids can watch stuff in a different room! Power supply crapped out. Ordered new parts on 19th. Cross your fingers... Attachments:

FAIL! Reworked power supply installed. Powered up, displayed start up logo on screen , and logo stayed there for longer than normal(froze up?) . Now same issue, powers up but no display. Thinking it wasn't the power supply, probably the main board. Checked all the voltages, and they're what is labeled on connectors on power supply. Inverter boards are getting 24v, but not turning on. I can bypass them and they turn on, so for whatever reason the main board isn't working/turning them on. Standby voltage is working properly, because the remote still works to turn on/off. So do I gamble and buy a main board, or just recycle the thing...

$50 for a main board, going to give it a shot. Seller says I can return the board if it doesn't fix it. Be nice to have a 2nd TV for the kids in a different room, my brain is mush from some of the crap they watch.
The caps were ~$16, so be back into it for $70 if it works again. Cheaper than buying a new 42" flat panel...

Looks complicated. I bet Red Green could fix it with a roll of duct-tape.
