on my tv ,the picture comes in like a channel you didn't pay for ,is it going out?

Answer 1

TV repairmen are much like the Maytag guy: hardly working....and when they are--expect to fork over a small fortune for their services.

Hope does spring a bit of light for you, however. It's quite possible your TV's Rear Projector TV lamp may be going out or is already blown.

Try visiting the site LaptopsforLess.com. Look up your brand TV and find the compatable replacement Rear Projector TV lamp ( RPTV).

The unit should come in it's own casing--making it easy to install yourself.....and you save yourself a fourth of what having the TV repair guy fix it or needlessly chucking the whole set and buying a new one.
