Yep, I'm pretty sure it's a Funai. If it's lasted for 8 years for many hours a day, consider yourself lucky.

As far an Funai goes, I have better luck fixing their TV only models. Most of those usually have power supply or vertical problems. Of course, I've seen plenty with bad flyback transformers, bad yokes, and switching power supplies that would run away and send hundreds of volts through the chassis.

AARRRGGH!
Any idea when Toshiba sets started being manufactured by Funai....The first models of 20" flat square sets that I remember seeing were Toshiba and I am fairly certain that they were made in Japan, but that was perhaps 6 or 7 years earlier*.

*re-thinking, it was more like the mid 80s.
