Hi

I had the same problem and was close to getting it looked at professionally, read all the various answers that have been posted re possible soldering faults etc and decided to give it a good hit on the side (my Sony was seveeral years old and out of warranty). It worked! Maybe it will develop the fault again but at least I know it is something trivial, ie all the compoents have the caopability of working. Good luck, Phil Devon, UK
