It is an inverter issue. They do not sell inverter separately, but you need to buy the whole circuit board to replace it. I also came across this issue after my factory waranty had expired, but I was covered by AMEX buyers assurance plan which paid for the repair cost( $109 for the part online at sears) including labor.
