TV Schematic

Does anyone know where I could find free TV service manuals?

My TV just has a horizontal line across the midle of it and I want to find a manual of some kind to help fix it,It is a NetTV Multi-Media monitor.Its worth about $1600.00 so im not to eager to trash it besides that I use it for my computer monitor and my TV so I would be screwed.I just need any kind of TV service manual just so I can identify parts because the internet helps but it always says the name of the part and I dont know what they are talking about,for example (the yolk) It said to clean the terminals on the yolk,I dont know what a yolk is.It would be nice to have some kind of picture with names pointing to parts or something.Im trying to find out where the vertical projector is located ,I have no clue.A manual for any TV would be nice it would at least be somekind of reference to my TV. Thanks Dave

1. The yoke is the round coil around the neck of the crt(picture tube).I t should have wires going down to the main chasis.vertical and horizontal.Your problem is vertical if you have a line east to west.Getting a manual wouldn't help you much.First you have to find one,then you have to get it.Then you have to know how to read it.Then you have to troubleshoot the problem.It's a bit complex and we still haven't found the part(s).If it's worth fixing for you,do yourself a favor and find a good local shop.I will guarantee you will cause more harm than good.I've seen a lot of this and I know from personal experience.Good luck
2. Normally a horizontal bar across the screen is an indication of loss of horizontal sync or a power problem. Either one is a pain for the non-technical person to repair. I would suggest you employ professional assistance. In the long run you will save money and patience.
