| We have a Model SK-32H240S Digital HDTV. When turned on it comes on with both picture and sound but about 2-3 seconds later, the picture disappears. There is a blank screen but the sound is on. I spoke with a cust. serv. representative and explained the problem. He asked us to reboot the system by shutting the TV off and removing all connecting wires on the back of the TV and leaving them off for two minutes. We reconnected all the wires and turned the TV on. But, no luck, same problem - picture for 2-3 seconds with sound then a blank screen with sound only. He then told me to press the Menu button. The Menu won't come on because there is no picture. You need some kind of picture on the screen for the Menu to appear. Any idea what the problem could be and is it FIXABLE or worth fixing? The TV is just three years old. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!!!!! |

See if you can see very dim video / menu with a flashlight held close to screen.

How are you with changing out soldered-in components?

| You can take the number off the inverter also and search for the whole inverter board. |

Correct. Plug-n-play.

|
|
My Westinghouse SK-32H240S - 32" starts to shake scrin after apx 2 hrs.
The colors and everything is ok, I still can see the screen/picture but unable to watch it because of cutting/shaking horizontally
would that be inventer or the mainboard or other part to be changed?
Thank you |
