I have had the tv for 3 years, it just cut off on me 2 days ago. The technician told me the high voltage transformer was bad. 100$ for the part and 100$ for labor if i wanted to fix it. He recommended i just by a new one but not the 24 inch they have a tendency to go bad. I tried to order the part to replace myself because i work in electronics but they asked if i owned a tv repair shop. Now its sitting in my garage collecting dust. E-mail me if something happens.
