Have a TV that suddently won't turn on anymore. I press the power button and
nothing happens, as though there is no power supply. Doesn't seem like the
tube has gone or anything like that. What is the likely cause? Blown fuse?
Easy to fix?

If you can't diagnose that yourself, then the answer is to go visit your
local TV service tech and keep him in business.

Save yourself some money and throw it on the tip and buy yourself a new
wide-screen HD tv. You'll wish you'd done it ages ago.

What I'm saying is, are you sure it's plugged in and turned on at the wall?

Does anythig else work from that power socket ?

If so , then your TV is broken. It could be a blown/broken fuse, but more
likely is something like a burned out capacitor in the EHT voltage supply.

You could get it fixed ( if you needed to ask here, then get somebody
wqualified to do it), or you could seize the oppportunity to join the 21st
Century. Even with a cheapy 32" LCD you probably won't regret it.

Are you sure the power hasn't been disconnected due to non payment of
the account?

"Did you check the trouble shooting section of the manual?"

"I can't see the manual, it is dark and our electricity has been
disconnected"

It's one of those things you find on the street verge on collection day,
usually sitting beside an empty 60" cardboard box.

called news that was 99.9999% sport.

Gotta love people who think like that :)
Fuses rarely blow for no reason. The cause *may* be easy to fix, or just as
likely difficult and/or expensive!
If you have to ask I suggest it will not be easy for YOU to fix however,
unless buying a new set is an "easy fix" :)
