Hitachi RPTV shuts down (Top Skater 50") - replacements?
yes, the very projection TV I had serviced for faulty convergence ICs is now shutting off after about a minute. sounds like some sort of overcurrent shutdown. the status light actually stays lit on the adjustment panel when it's off. only time I've ever seen this was when I was trying to sort out the spaghetti factory of red green and blue crosshatches in the dynamic convergence setting... if I would go too far, it would shut the TV down. then I'd have to start over again.
maybe this isn't so much a question of how to fix it (since mr. TV repair man will have to handle it) but rather does anyone know a means for replacing one of these?
I'd hate to shitcan a Top Skater over a bad TV. I see em turn up all the time, but they're always too far away.
