Pieces

My TV is in pieces and I still can’t get at the god damn control board. From the pictures I’ve seen of the other similar models, it’s like this thing is purposefully designed to be impossible to get at. I would pretty much have to remove every single damn panel, cable, plug and screw to get the chassis out. And even then, getting the chassis open to get at the board would be no picnic.

After reading more forums, it seems like this might be even deeper than the four big capacitors, there’s stories of
every single capacitor going bad on this line.

I think I’m going to just put it back together and call Mitsubishi and give them hell like I’ve never given hell before. This TV is only three years old, barely out of warranty (which I probably voided when I opened up the back anyway). TVs should last more than three years. We didn’t even watch it that much.
