What kit is for model: 51UWX20B chassis: DP23? I know that I need 2 STK394-160 Output ICs, but don't know the values of the resistors. Can somebody please help?

I did read your first 10 posts. Thank you so much for all the info. I called Hitachi- They were able to tell me the 6 resistors in the locations on the chassis I need to replace. I found that kit X480293 had 4 of those resistors along with the 2 ICs. Now I just need to learn how to solder.
Another thing I need help with is taking the chassis out from the TV. I have taken everything off except some device (maybe 3"x3"x3.5") soldered to the chassis, that has heavy wires coming out the top going to the projectors. Is there anyway to diconnect the wires or something.

Thank you

Kit X480293 [Ohm] My Chassis [Ohm]
RK42 3.3 3.3
RK46 1.8 2.2
RK50 2.7 2.7
RK54 1.5 1.8
RK58 3.9 4.7
RK62 2.2 2.7

I thought that I needed to replace the resistors in my chassis to make sure they were ok. Are you saying that the resistors in my chassis need to be replaced with the ones from the kit? The kit isn't for my tv- Why would I put different resistors in my chassis that aren't for my tv?

Thank you for your continuing help.

I'm still confused- The kit is NOT for my model tv. I'm just using it because it includes four of the same Ohm resistors that my chassis originally came with. If the Ohm's of the resistors should be change from original values, what should I change them to?

Thank you for you help.

I will get the manual, but I already called Hitachi and got the resistor values for my tv. Will the manual tell me that since I'm now putting STK394-160E's, that I need to replace some of the resistors?

Thank you.

A friend at school told me about "wire wrapping" to fix the pins to the board since I have never soldered before. Is this an option?

Thank you.

I'm definitely hands-on. I will practice!

Thank you for your help- Your good.
