Universal remote help

I have a RCA D40W20 40" projection tv monitor. I don't have the origional remote and when I watch a channel that has trailors on the top and bottom, ESPN Scores, they are are about 80% cut off.

This set has different formats to switch from. 4:3, Zoom 14:9, Zoom 16:9, Zoom 16:9 ^/v, Cinerama, regular mode 16:9.

Somehow I am stuck in one of the zoom modes because of the above situation. The manual says the left/right arrows on the origional remote will move between the different formats.

Does anyone know of a RCA universal remote that would have this function?

My RCA 32V420T seems dead, just a horizontal line before shutting itself off!

We have had an RCA 32V420T tube TV we bought in '05.  All of a sudden it turned itself off.  Now if you try to turn it on, a blue/white thin horizontal line appears for about 3 seconds before the TV turns itself off!  

Have tried unplugging everything etc but nothing helps.  Also if I touch a channel or volume button on the tv itself it does the same thing (turns on, horizontal line, turns off).  Help, thanks! 

 

Sony D Board Replacement

I have a Sony KP-61HS30 that I am going to replace the D board completely.  Are there any specific steps that need to be taken aside from just hooking the new board up? 

WS-55857 Light Not Blinking

My son's 55857 fails to light the screen, it will power on by the remote and the green led blinks the usual 3 blinks plus the filments under each lamp will glow but no screen. I've tried unpluging the front panel and looked for any coolant leaks. I'm limited on my electronic knowledge so my guess that something is wrong with the high voltage side maybe a relay is just a novice assumption. Any help to get  him back going would be appreciated.

Gateway LCD monitor make hum or hiss when turned off

I have a gateway LCDFPD1730 that makes a hiss or Hum when it is turned off. I removed the back and I am trying to tell where the noise is coming from. I used a mic connected to the computer and the noise seems to be coming from the largest black cap on the middle of the board. Should i try checking or changing the cap first.Gateway power bd FPD1730

Mitsubishi WS 65819 Picture shakes

I can not belive I am the only one to have this problem. Why do you get a million replys for a blinking green and I get zero. Thanks George
