magnavox 25 inch

Ok so I was able to correct my original problem. Now my TV will turn on however it has a pink line across it then it will turn itself off. Any items?

you were able to fix the resistor 'problem'?

I advise you to see if you have a faulty ac receptacle.

You can check that by plugging in a lamp light at the same plug you plug in the tv.

The outlet is working I have my stereo and christmas tree plugged into now. Since my TV is not working.

Sorry I changed the diode and a capacitor.

And? Did it solve the problem?

No that allowed me to be able to turn my tv on which I could not do before. Now I am getting the pink line few a few seconds then my tv turns off.

OK, this must be the protection circuit (that shuts the tv off in order to protect it from damage). You would have to open the tv, and override the protection circuit in order to find out where excessive current is going that makes the tv shut off. If you know your way around in circuitry - you probably will manage, but else you will need a service manual. Or, take it to the shop to get someone experienced to fix it
