You know, for the most part the parts for these tvs are plug and play, meaning that most of them can easily be replaced.
Do check on your local repair shops to get the lowest estimate and get a guy out there to check the tv .
I personally think that the DMD, board is the culprit for the symptoms your tv is experiencing.
