thanks FP we let are fingers do the shopping and went to Sam's retailer partner wally world . they will have the new set deliver to me tomorrow :)
my guess is its a fuse that went in the set . I'm half tempted to take the cover off and check to see . but this is a older non - wifi set so its giving me a out with the wife to join 21 century without her going apeshit about it .:)

Sounds like a surge down the cable line.
