Hi, I have an RCA tv with Guide+. Model# F32665, Chassis# CTC203CH3, Service# F32665YX6. I am getting good sound, but I am not getting any picture, just a black screen. Although, I am getting the Guide+ menu to pop up on screen. I noticed that it doesnt have any listings as if it is not connected to the cable. I tried to use the VCR to see if it would play from the other input, but nothing at all. I have checked around on the internet and found this set is known for having alot of problems. I got it for free about 2 years ago, so if its a lost cause, no big deal. But if there might be a fairly easy, inexpensive fix, I'm up for the challenge. Any ideas? Thanks.

If your willing to get inside (warning, danger) and solder and take some measurements

Open er up and find R14156, ifs its toasty loooking, replace it. Its a resistor 51 Ohms, 1.2 Watt.
Also replace CR14116. Part #227362, its a zener diode, not sure of the value.
