well better take it to the sony service centre,mostly a capacitor or a resistor thats one kaput,at the most a IC,service cost should be around 750 to 1000.i believe this is a 100hz tv,sold some where b/w 2004 to 2005.w

Sad! Just not able to digest the price tag of 48k on a 29 inch CRT

TV is repaired and got it back today.This was "pin cushion" problem. Some IC and transitor was replaced with bill for Rs1395. This TV was repaired in May this year for 4 times blinking problem. Cost was nearly Rs1500 including service tax. So this time service charge was exempted
