Unhappy

Sadly, I decided to send my dearly beloved deceased Proscan 36" TV to its final resting place, the recycling depot. I did get the circuit board out of its carrier and was going to buy an OEM replacement flyback from eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/237506-RCA-F...:X:RTQ:US:1123 but the seller's picture of the flyback didn't show any wires and I couldn't get the wires off the blown flyback. I had sent the eBay seller a message asking if there are wires with the new flyback but he took too long to reply so I thought that meant it came without wires, etc. By the time he replied, stating that the flyback comes with the wires, etc., as a kit, the TV was gone. The kit cost less than $20 plus $20 shipping, a lot less than the $75 it cost to have the very large and heavy Proscan taken away. If the seller had replied to my question sooner, I would have fixed the Proscan. Until I get a new Panasonic Viera 50 or 55 ST60, in April, I am watching TV on an old 20" Sony Trinitron or on my tv tuner equipped widescreen HP media laptop. Thanks to everyone for your help and encouragement to fix the Proscan.
