Looking for some help for my 33" U3000 with no HV. At first, I was getting the ticking sound so I tried to check the output voltage from the power supply board but couldn't get a reading when it was connected because it would keep dropping becuase of the HV shutdown being active. So I did a cap kit and replaced the HOT, I also replaced most of the caps on the power supply board.
When I checked the output voltage from the power supply board, it was about 190v with no load. I know that's high, but again, it was with no load connected so not sure if it is too high.
Anyhow, when I tried to test the monitor, the HOT blew again. I noticed that there was a small melted spot on the flyback near one of the cables. So I ordered another HOT and a new flyback and installed them.
When I tried to test again, I did get a neck glow but no picture, as I started to make adjustments, the neck glow went out. I tested the HOT and, sure enough, it was blown again.
Paying $8 + shipping for a HOT is starting to get old. If anybody has any experience with this chassis, I would sure appreciate some guidance.
Thanks !
