I got a used Emerson 19" TV a month ago, it has worked fine, on for several
hours each evening since then. The set is about 9 years old.
Last night, tried it, it was dead. Power switch had no effect. There have
been no power surges, electrical storms, etc.
In decades of TV use, I've never seen this failure mode. Usually, a TV
picture starts to go, or a tuner goes bad, etc. Not sudden total failure.
How normal is this?
I don't have a lot of test equipment. Anything I can easily check inside?
TIA
