From: pink on 4 Jul 2005 13:01 I have an RCA rear projection TV P46725SK - set is plugged in and was working fine until today when I tried to turn it on. I can hear a faint "click click click" from the vicinity of the flyback transformer when the power button is pressed. The power light blinks in unison with the clicking sound. I'd like to fix this puppy since I don't have the cash for a new TV right now and it's so heavy I dread getting it out of the house. Help!

From: dkuhajda on 4 Jul 2005 13:07 You are going to have to do basic tv troubleshooting and post the results for any help. There are not easy answers. So far we know the set does not turn on and needs repaired. If you do not have the proper training and equipment, it is better to pay for a quality estimate on the set so you can make an intelligent decision on whether to have it repaired or not. Most RPTV repairs fall under $300 total in home in most US markets.

Does ctc number = chassis number? If so, the chassis number is PTK169PFA. I have some troubleshooting skills - I once fixed my Defender arcade game monitor (bad flyback transformer). I have no schematics or tech info other than a parts list and board ID sheet I found under the back panel of the set. I have a DVM. It's not clear how to discharge the flyback transformer... it's not like a regular TV where you'd slip a grounded screwdriver under the rubber cap. Here the HV lead disappears under the three projection tubes. Not sure how to get to those w/o zapping myself in the process. What else to check? kip wrote: > Whats the ctc number on it ?? > > kip > "pink" <dapinkie(a)gmail.com> wrote in message > news:1120495196.199568.16140(a)g49g2000cwa.googlegroups.com... > >I have an RCA rear projection TV P46725SK - set is plugged in and was > > working fine until today when I tried to turn it on.
