My TV started making a clicking sound and then the picture disappeared, all that's left is a horizontal white line on a black background. Is it knacked?

Is it worth fixing, not an expensive TV.

Get yourself across to www.avforums.com/forums/index.php and post your query on there.

It's full of TV and video nerds, Techies and knowledgeable retailers all of whom will be only too pleased to advise you.

It's like PH only with TV's instead of TVR's

Not the tripler, if that had gone there would be nothing on the screen at all.

The frame drive chip has packed up, replacement part should be less than a fiver.

There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. ... We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. ... We will control all that you see and hear
