This link is to a company that offers repair kits for various faults with the specific model you have.

http://www.tvrepairkits.com/xcart/61sbx59b/

However you can also search the Hitachi site for help with diagnosis of your problem. I have no commercial interest in the above company or any experience of their capability.

Hope that helps.
