Advice on (hopefully) simple repair to RCA HDTV
Yep, I've done it again! Second curbside TV in a month.
This one is a 2004 RCA (Thompson ) 52" HD rear projector. The guy said it quit working about a week ago. I get it home(inquire about sidesplitting story! )and plug it in. The standby LED lights up and the power supply energizes, but the set doesn't turn on. I remove the back panel and find a thoroughly toasted resistor on the back of the mainboard, well away from the PSU. The carnage on the board roasted off most of the part #, but judging by the others on the board, I think it is number R14703. The rest of the board is clean.

It's only noticeable from some angles under certain lighting. Hoping to get this working to go in our pool room for Super Bowl and gaming.
