I have a Mitsubishi WS-55907 that is about 8 years old, but not used a lot. I was watching a movie on it and the tv just stopped working. If you hit the power button you hear the click like it wants to go on then you hear a click and it shuts off. No picture goes on at all. How can I fix this problem!!!!
Thanks
I do.
Mitsubishi VS-60805. TV was on for several hours (before Hurricane Ike hit our area), but display shut off while green power light stayed steady on.
Have same symptoms as you: can hear caps charge up when plugged in and hear relays click when power is turned on. Projection tubes glow, but no display is seen (not even blue "video mute" screen).
I'm sure it's not the main power fuse (F900 125V 5A) and am hoping it's either another power fuse or pico fuse.
Edit: I was able to remove the chassis (thanks to service manuals from Larry for a similar model).
I tested continuity for ALL pico fuses and they are fine. Two fuses on the main power supply board are hard-wired with resistors in the fuse slot.
However, a small cap (16V 47microfarad, C410 on the power board) appears to have leaked all fluid. Don't have schematics, but wonder if this may be the problem. All other caps looks fine (i.e., no swollen tops or leakage).
Would still like feedback on this if you could provide some.
