RCA HD52W59	Can't Post

I have this tv also. Like a 1 1/2 ago I changed a capacitor that would not let the screen open. Now the screen bowed in. And I can see the colors distorted. Now it will not turn on and the green light blinks twice and it shuts down. Can you help me

The Destroyer;....

You may have 2 problems with that tV.... Unsure

.....
#1=..."Now the screen bowed in. And I can see the colors distorted".
#2=..."Now it will not turn on and the green light blinks twice and it shuts down".
You need to fix the 1st problem to see if the 2nd also is fixed....

First ,
How much electronic/TV repair background experience do you have ????
You will need to remove the chassis , resolder some connections & check/replace a possible blown fuse...

Later...Ron.M.... Cool

The Destroyer;...

Your model number crosses to an ITC222 chassis that has issues with bad connections on the flyback...
Also known to blow the fuse(s) off the flyback....
In the pix below;=>...

The arrow points to the fuse that when it blows (Center fuse) , it messes up the convergence badly....
That fuse is for the convergence supply...
You will need a DVM to check it & see if it is bad..
Use the ohms setting on the lowest scale (RX1)...
You should read 0.0 ohms...
It is a 400 ma special fuse...
You can safely replace it with a 500 ma (1/2 amp) pico fuse easily gotten at Radio Shack or any TV parts store...
Also check the other 2 fuses...
IF bad replace them....
After you do that , carefully flip the chassis over being carefull to not stretch ANY wiring too much causing damage to other areas...
IF you need to disconnect any cabling or connectors , MARK them so you know EXACTLY where they go back to...
The flyback is the large black transformer (On the lower left corner of my pix) with the heavy red wire coming from top & another from the side...
Resolder ALL the connections on the foil side of the transformer , whether they look good or not.
Please post results....THANKS.... Sly

HAve a GREAT day.... Sly
