I have a 20 inch Zenith TV where recently the colors are starting to get weird and nobody changed it. Then lately the picture squeezes horizonally and shuts off. And it happens when you turn it on but if you put it on a channel that dosen't do squeezing it will stay on but if it continues to squeeze a few times it will shut off. Also when the TV is off, it is making a highed pitched noise.

I don't know how old the tv is but it is not new. Does anyone know what is going on as if I call any of these TV repair places nobody ever contacts me back.
