i was not getting any standby voltage on power supply board so decided to spend $25 on power supply on ebay before paying a tv repair ship or buying a new tv

replaced board and TV is working.

remove the back cover.  easiest to have it lying face down on the floor
about 2 dozen screws.  3 sizes.  all Phillips head




disconnect ribbon in lower right corner of power supply board (blue circle) and check for any voltage on the pins.  i did not get any voltage on any pin so assumed bad board.
