No idea, I'm no expert with electronics really, just a symptom I've
learnt to identify for dead electronics - it occurs more often on
motherboards due to cheap caps used nowadays.  I think you might be
better off talking to a TV expert.  To me, your problem could be
anything - magnet going, H sync electronics problems, faulty cable
etc., etc.  No idea really.

Good luck though!
