hmmmm.... I have a Sanyo DS25390, I got it from my sister who bought it new....
She sent it to me for a buzzing sound it would make while on.... Turned out to be a
common problem with a bad cap on the standby supply that would run the relay
when the set is on.... Yesterday while watching the set I saw the picture fold up from
the bottom for a few seconds, then for the rest of the evening it returned to full size.
But you could see very tight compressed scan lines at the bottom..... I guess it's a cap
since the buzz was a cap, and I found many of this type of problem on the internet...
I imagine most Sanyo's are the same, and that if this cap goes bad completely it
will take out several other components....? Correct...? I guess I'm better off taking
this set out of service and replacing caps in the vertical...... When I got the set, it also
had the white glue on the convergence magnets dried and let go, I did a full convergence
on this tv, It has an outstanding picture, So I'm very interested in keeping it....
I have several back-ups....
