Hi,
I jsut fixed my Mitsuhishi rear projection tv. 5 out of 18 pins on one of the convergence modules had "desoldered" themselves from the board. I have resolded the pins and the TV works fine. The two STK's are vertical and "pasted" onto a large heat sink. Who ever put this thing together used a large amout of heat sink paste and I have noticed that some has run down the heat sink and pooled against the circuit board. It is not touching the pins. The TV is back together. Should I take it apart and clean the paste off the circuit board? If so, then with what - 70% rubbing alcohol?
thanks
mike
