I have equipments coming to the shop and the repair was only simply re soldering. I also agree with John preher and I also do the same thing. before working in any machine, I scan the board with a large magifying glass and check for dry joints. I had one case I that I could remember when a tv came to my shop and it shuts down after 15 minutes. and upon checking the board I found at the fly back section. one of the fly back transformer was loose and was making sparks and I could smell the burn. i resolder the joint and tested the tv for about 2 hours. it worked just fine
