Well I heard back from the owner, they don't want to fool with it so the set is mine. I actually prefer that outcome, I'm not comfortable doing work for others when I don't know what I'm doing.
I would like to go ahead and replace the chip on the YSUS board myself just for the "fun" and experience of doing it, besides, after removing the fifty screws holding the back on the rest can't be
that hard.
How do I go about ordering a chip from Coppel's? Just write them and say I need a YSUS chip for an Akai model xxxx?
By the way, I haven't said thank you yet for the help, so thank you!
Here's a pic of the back side, is this a Samsung built set?
