Multimeter = YES Measure resistance of resistors and compare to value written on them.
Desolder = YES Always desolder first, then remove old device, replace with new device and solder.
Many "How to" videos on you tube. |

Sorry for double posting but I just realized I need to pull this board out entirely and desolder the underside where those pins from the IC go in don't I? Argh. I am not electronically inclined. I might need a walkthrough here or a link to one if anyone has such a thing.
Thank you,

Hey again,
I have those IC's unscrewed but I'm having trouble actually REMOVING them from the board. I don't want to force it too much and risk breaking something-any suggestions you could provide to get those out? I haven't removed the heat sink because I see no obvious way to do this. I unscrewed the two obvious screws holding down the unit. I do not know where to go from here.
Also, how do I check for open or changed value resistors in the area? I'm unsure of what you mean by that. Are we talking multimeter time here or is there some other check I should be doing?
Thank you for your help,
Huxley |

When you have IC's pulled, check for open or changed value resistors in the same area.
Yes, flash focus should work again. |

Hey Jts,
Thanks for the reply. Once they come in and I put them on, are there any procedures that I need to follow to get this convergence back to normal? Should the flash focus work afterwards? |

The convergence IC's are on the "D" board. The D board is on the left hand side with the back off. They occupy the largest heat sink. |

Hey again all,
I took a picture of the back of the TV. Could someone please point out where the STK392-150's are and where I can purchase them? Also, a link on how to install them if one exists? Thanks for any help!

I'm on my way out the door, but if I take a picture of the boards and post them, could you point to what is what? My knowledge of this TV is limited.
Thanks for the reply,
