My husband has tried that but they don't show enough. Or pinpoint is wrong. We will keep looking. Thank you for replying!

Hi Lisa, In a previous life I had a more than amatuer background in electronics and for the last several years I've had a small remote cabin that is powered with stand alone solar power. So, having said that my knowledge of grid tie systems is limited. There is nothing mechanical about a grid tie inverter. It's all electronic and unless your husband has the equipment necessary to undertake a repair I would look elsewhere which leads me to the second portion of your request. I do know there are two companies in Austin that sell, install and repair solar equipment but for the life of me I cannot find any information on them. However, I pulled up a schematic of a grid tie inverter and frankly, as far as complexity, it looks pretty simple. ( http://solar.smps.us/grid-tie-inverter-schematic.html ) I know TV and stereo repair companies are slowly going by the way side but I would look for the small one man or family run TV repair shop in your area. If the unit has a model number there's a very good chance a schematic for it can be located and any TV repair shop should have the capabilities to repair it. I'd shy away from seeking the corporate TV and electronic repair facilities. Most wouldn't be willing to step out of their realm of profit making. Sorry I couldn't offer you a fix but hopefully this puts you on a path to a solution.
