Re[2]: JVC service or questions

Tom Posted Nov 02, 2005, in response to:shannon

I have a JVC 56" Rear Proj Hi-Def TV model #AV-65WP74. As Shannon experienced, it started making a "thumping" noise through the speakers and shut down. The only sign of life was the blue light on the power button fading in and out. I un-plugged and then re-powered it with the same results. A local repair shop had to take it back to their shop to work on it. They called today to tell me that the "high-voltage transformer" had to be replaced at a cost of $570.00 to $630.00. Does this sound accurate? Is this a realistic repair cost? I researched repair parts costs on-line @ Partstore.com and couldnt find any such part name or description. This set isn't even 3 years old. At this point I need to decide if it's worth repairing or buying a new set. If nothing else, this is probably a good example of the justification for an extended warranty. Please provide your feedback ASAP. I feel like I'm living in the dark ages without my big-screen! Many thanks, Tom
