S-Video not working!

I have a Samsung TX-P2036 TV. Everything was great until the S-Video screwed up. I can only get the signal in Black and White. For a while I could fiddle with the wire until it gave me color, but I can't do that anymore. It sucks playing Tales of Symphonia in Composite. Believe me the difference is huge....

I don't know too much about these problems. Can I fix this myself, or do I need a repairman to come in? Thanks!

First try another S-video cable. From your description it sounds like one of the leads in the cable has broken.

Oh, I forgot to mention. I did try another s-video cable. It didn't work either. I thought it was the cable as well.....

Most likey it's a bad plug on the TV. Best bet is to get it fixed...unless you feel comfortable enough opening up a TV with potential to kill (even if unplugged) yourself.
