It could feel nice when someone brings you a TV to repair, but unfortunately it's a godforsaken LCD TV UE46C6820US.
They managed to rip off the special Samsung "S-RGB in" connector needed for the SCART adapter and the pads on the board are undamaged, i think i can solder that piece of 0.5mm pitched garbage back.
Damn it's more fragile than SCART itself, they broke after decades and this piece of an "superior" TV broke off after 4 years

I just noticed something:
It's rated at 150W, my CRTs KV-C2521D (pic related) is rated at 96W and KV-M1400D at 48W.
Now i really want to punch people right in their face when say that CRTs have deadly voltage everywhere in every corner; have the highest power consumption; have the worst picture quality.
All of that isn't true at all unless you're doing it wrong.

>Not sure if this pic shows it well or not
Not really. The test grid of the 240p Test Suite kinda sucks when you have that red part and when it's quite thick.
If you emulate or have an SNES with a flashcart then you could try to find the SNES Test Program (U) and go to COLOR TEST, it has a pure white and thin grid with and a separate dot pattern.

>If it is, is there any way to fix it without breaking the bank or opening the crt myself
Nope.
