My Whistling Wega wtf.:/???

[spaceman]

over the past week or so,my wega has been "whistling" on and off..(hi pitched noise.)
its only 8 months old.
i did have digital cable installed 3 weeks ago.could this have anything to do with it?

I have the same problem with my Wega, not sure what causes it. Typically, if you turn it off, leave it off for like 15 seconds, then turn it back on it works fine.

What model is it if you don't mind me asking?

It's the flyback transformer.

I can't remember if it's a bad sign or not though.

I have a really old 20" Zenith that does that constantly. Some one told me that it was a cold solder joint....... Got so damn annoying that I bought a new 27" WEGA.

I say if yours is still under warranty, get it replaced.

When I turn on my wega, it sounds like it's going to explode.
Is that normal?

Maybe so if you're watching Band of Brothers.....

my tv is having the problem of Ghosting now, sorta like a monitor, anyone ever heard of that before?

I have the same problem w/ my 20" Trinitron Monitor. It started a few months ago but has slowly gone away. =)

It's not the flyback transformer. It's the horizontal oscillator and it's not a good sign.

Maybe an exorcism?

Seriously though, I haven't seen that problem before.

Is it the Sony KV27FS100 or the KV27F200?

My Panasonic tv used to do that, and it eventually just died.

The same deal with my wega. But it happens once in a long while and it's low enough not to bother me.
