I have an RCA MODEL #P46733AT , CHASSIS #PTK178LA and one day I turned it on but heard a frying sound then it tried 2 more times to start then shut down.I opened the cabinet and found the hv splitter was cracked and arcing to the nearest ground.Somehow, I managed to replace the splitter without getting electrocuted and still the set tries to start 2-3 times then shuts down.I'm not a tv tech so laymens terms please.I'm determined to fix this tv myself I can check caps resistors etc if I knew where to look I've already tried unplugging the set.I'd like to know where the dangerous HV points are and if the set retains any HV after it has been unplugged awhile? thank you
