Stand-by light was blinking 7 times,I unpluged set and reset to factory settings. Now I have stand-by light blinking 6 times,any common concerns and cost to repair.Thanks.I made some calls,they want to replace the d-board,common connector,focus lead and capacitor.Cost $540.00 and I have to drop off unit.What do you suggest ? I removed the rear cover to inspect ic6501 and ic8002,found melted plastic under flyback. What caused the flyback to get so hot ?
