This TV has been working fine for a while
suddenly it started to warm up and then shuts off right away
when i opened it up and checked the main board did not find any black burned marks or anything
noticed if you unplug red and blue wires together that go to the tube
white dot appears on the tube for about 50sec and then it shuts off.

Thanks for the help!

If the TV means anything to you, get a professional to re-solder your chassis for you. Obviously, unplugging yoke wires is not going to fix it for you and if you know so little about TVs, you need a pro to fix it for you. So you don't get electrocuted in the process.

We, (In this business) pay for educations to learn to help you. Utilize that to your advantage ok. Best of luck to you!

sorry but after you unpluged the yoke and turned that puppy on....... the tube is going to have a nice burnt spot in the middle of the tube. through it away and buy a new one at walmrt
