As the mechanic up there oh so nicely brought up, i been shocked before.

I make sure my stock pile has been unplugged atleast a week. (The way my stock rotates, i have no problem with that.)

After that, i take the back plastic off, then cut the red thick chord. I take my needle nose pliers, take the suction cup off, then use my all and air the tube.

I also run my long rubber handled flat tip screw driver on the back of the circuit board to release any stored up power. I thought that didnt work at first, until i got a nice little jolt one day when my hand slipped and touched the screw driver when runnin it on the back of the board.

What i do works, hope some of it works for you.

LMAO! Sorry Hoss, not laughin at ya, but with ya! LOL.
That has to be the funniest thread on this whole forum. I've actually thought about it a time or two as I was going to break down a few of the 50 or so t.v.'s I've got here. Then I laugh, then cringe, then change my mind. My doggone pile just keeps growin. Before I read your story I only had about 20. I'm sorry it happened to ya. I really am, but I sure am glad it weren't me. LOL
