Things did not go so well with my install. The red gun went out of convergence on my TV, and I went to my local retailer, and they did not have the 150 chips, only the 110s. I went ahead and installed the 110 chips. When I powered up the TV, all I heard was a thumping sound, and a click like a relay going off and on. I turned it off, and removed the convergence board. It was then I noticed the smoked resistor. One of the 2.2 resistors what discolored, but I did not notice it because it was discolored on the bottom of the resistor. Sure enough, it tested open. So tomorrow I am going to pick up the 2.2 resistor I need to replace (I did test the rest, they were ok), but I would like to know if yall think I fried my 110 chips by running it with one open resistor? Also, I marked all my connections when I took the board out, but I noticed one extra plug-in one the large silver compontent that is to the left of the 100 chip assemblies when facing the TV. It is a 6 pin connection in the side of the silver box (im not sure what it is..) Is there supposed to be a plug in this connection? Thanks, C. Alan
