Hey all, my dad is giving me his 42" Sony trinitron. Its still in excellent condition, but I noticed the left side of the screen is starting to slant down. Its easily noticeable to me on stations with moving bars like CNN or ESPN. My question is, would this be an expensive thing to get fixed? $200 or so would be fine by me since the tv is free, but would it be so expensive as to not bother? Is it even possible to fix? Thanks for the time all. |

Yes, both of your problems can be fixed. Do not attempt to self repair unless you know exactly what you ae doing. Hard to give repair estimate but expect $200 at a minimum-probably more. |

I have a Sony Trinitron KV-36FS16 manufactured FEB 2002.
The video craps out after it's on for about 3-4 munutes. Besides the above, I have found two more people with the same problem.
Sony is no help.
I called a repairman to see if he would come over and fix it. His respose, "A Sony! Forget it.
You can call 866-925-7278 a parts place.
I haven't opened up the back to see if it has a separate video card yet. You would have to know this to order the part. |
