Help my tv makes weird clicking noise?

its a mitsubishi regular tv and when its on it makes a click/tick noise and when it does so the pic dims away and comes back right away sometimes it clicks constantly and then other times it wont click at all i could have the tv on all day without clicks but out of nowhere its like a click tantrum and then just stops clicking whenever it wants to and unpluging it and plugging back in does no good. i heard it could have been the cable box so i hooked it up oldschool way and still does it! its a nice tv and would like to get it fixed but maybe it could be somthing easy to resolve but with my luck it will cost more than the tv is worth

I am willing to bet from a pinch to a pound of sh,it that your focus control is arcing internally or the focus volts are arcing on its connector on the CRT base board !!

Reply:Realist 2006 is SO CORRECT that I wouldn't want to add anything....short of the fact it MIGHT be your Spark Gaps or the CRT socket arcing....all three parts are reasonably priced...
