Hi,
This is my first post here, and I have to say thank you to all of the great advice here. I really appreciate all of the patience and insight that this forum has. I have already successfully replaced my IC chip to fix my convergence issue on my Phillips 55PP9363H/17B, and am in the process of changing the CRT Coolant.
I have the Blue CRT out, and have drained all of the old coolant (which was a nice yellow color). I am about to clean the lens and coolant chamber, but want to make sure that I am removing the correct parts. The instructions posted by lcaillo say "Remove the lens carefully by pulling the four mounting screws while holding the crt pointing up over a basin".

I just want to make sure that I am taking off the correct screws. I am assuming that I need to remove the 4 torque/star male screws on the lens rather than the 4 silver bolts with the springs. Is this correct?
Also - on another note. When I did the IC repair, even thought I carefully labeled all of the cables I must have missed one because the non-HD inputs (AV1, AV2, AV3) only show a magenta screen, but with audio. Anyone have an idea which cable I missed. I'm not sure of the protocol here - should this be under a different thread?
BTW - the photos posted by BrookeClarke were really helpful! Thanks for taking the time to post those.
Thanks,
Walt
