No Display at all
#1

Ok, i have a '96 Mitsubishi CS-40707 40 inch picture tube tv. I've always kind of had a problem with the screen fading in and out every now and then but usually it comes back fully. Now though, it has gone out and i know the tv is working fine because i can hear sound and everything, it is just the display. Now i am not sure this has to do specifically with the picture tube or if its some other problem. I took off the back and there is a main fause bulb that looks a little black but everything else lookes fine. I cleaned it and it still won't work. I also tried adjusting adjusting the master screen control on the flyback transformer and still nothing. Is there something i am doing wrong or something i should be doing? Am i going to just have to replace something? Any information or advice would help me greatly. Thank you all for just taking the time to read this. Thanks.
