When I first turn on my TV everyday, if I am a watching a digital/analog channel through my cable box for the first 30 minutes while the tv warms up there are purple verticle lines flashing across the screen, the picture is fuzzy and distorted, and it flickers. When I switch to an HD channel or another source such as an xbox or a dvd player this isn't an issue. I have tried the cable box with another tv and it works fine, so the cable box isn't the issue. I heard it might have something to do with a hyper module. How much would a repair cost for this?
The hyper module itself is not an expensive repair about $70 to $100.00 dollars. The tech will simply be replacing about a dozen 16v/10mf smd caps and re-installing it on the signal board. But that doesn't address what he has to do to get to it and get the hyper board off and back on the signal board and that is a bit time consuming.
What I would suggest is to call around to the various shops and ask what they charge for the hyper module repair and see if you can get an off the cuff estimate for around $250.00 dollars.

So you are sure it is most likely a hyper module issue though?
