your lucky I happened to have the service manual lying from earlier something else you might want to try.

Taken from manual:
It is possible to over ride the lamp error detection circuit and force the set to power up. To enable this feature proceed as follows:
connect ( short ) pins 2 and 4 of the main board connector CN 1101.

It's very possible you could have a lamp error issue this will allow you to get the set operational and see whats going on good luck !

This sounds promising except there isn't a connector CN1101 on the main board :(

On this model the eeprom in question is IC 1803 (24C256) 8 pin smd and is located on the underside of the main board near the common interface. The clock and data pins are pins 5 and 6 and are identifiable by the 100 ohm smd resistors connected to each of them. Fit a shorting link (on long wires) between the pins. Reassemble the chassis. Switch on and then remove the short. Bring the set out of standby.

There is no 'IC1803' on the underside of the mainboard - the only 8-pin IC on the underside of the main board is 24C32WP - IC3004

That'll be it most chips that start 24c  are eeproms. For the lamp out bypass on the model I was looking at was the socket on the main board that connects to the power supply and your right it wasnt cn1101 it was cn 1001 but it still worked !
Attached is the data sheet for th eeprom with pin outs

Yes there is a CN1001 connector going from PSU to main pcb.

With regards to the eeprom reset - if I reset it (wipe it) do I have or how do I re-save the data that is supposed to be in there?

Earlier I had another look at it. Tested the 3 fuses on the inverter and they all seem fine as do the other components with a visual inspection.

I powered it up and upon listening to the PSU closely - ie ear about 5cm away from it, you can hear a feint click (on the 2 second red LED pause) then for the 4 flashes there is a feint fuzzy buzzing noise.

So I think I will hold off reseting the eeprom for now.
Is the protection overide (pins 2 & 4) worth doing? Is there any risk?
I'm going to test each of the psu caps.
