Hitachi 51F510 51" Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television - Page 2 Questions & Answers
The picture color is very red. Sound fine.
I have a solution for this depending on what you tell me:
Go to a channel with the program in BLACK AND WHITE, TURN THE COLOR ON THE SET TO ZERO.
What color is the screen? If it is red or somewhat red (not black and white) I CAN TELL YOU HOW TO CORRECT THIS--I HAVE SEEN IT BEFORE AND IT IS A TEN MINUTE FIX--NO PARTS WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED.
Confirm not black and white picture---respond with a comment here and I will tell you exactly what to do and how---- I have seen this problem before.

If using a cable box, disconnect it and set first from power for a while and power back----box and set will try to "reboot" which may or may not help--worth trying.
Hitachi 51f59/a red and green projectors are not working
If the set is 3d or colors skewed look to see if set has "magic focus" which is auto convergence---it may or may not help. Also look in customer menu for convergence to see if you can call it up with the remote-----a set with this: if red or blue lines will not move in some direction(not adjust) one of the two stk convergence chips is bad.Kits are available and it can be a do it yourself repair---look first to see if convergence will not adjust and if you have that let me know if you need advice----for example: red will move up/down but not left right.SD TECH
I have no red in my tv
In most cases your problem will be with the red crt or the red driver pcb. The crt or "picture tube" should be replaced by a tech. The red driver pcb is easier and you might be able if you know a little about tv's. You can try one other thing first. Pop off the front grill cover. Take out the 4 or 6 screws that hold on the cover that is in the dead center of the area that you just uncovered. Inside there you will find the 3 crt's. At the end of the crt's you will find the driver pcb's. Make sure they are on tightly and that the cables on the driver pcb's are seated tightly (with the tv off). Now take a flashlight and look for a black square pieace, about 3 to 4 inches square. There will be 6 small knobs on it. 3 are focus and 3 are screen controls. Find the one that is for "red screen". Turn the tv on. Turn this control clockwise and see if the red comes back. If it does great, switch the tv's input to an input that does not have anything on it, so that the screen is black, and turn that red control to the piont that the red is not visable. If this does not get the red back, then you will have to replace the parts that I have told you about.
HITACHI 51F510 SCREEN ASSEMBLY
The Hitachi site may have this available or you can Google the model number to see if you can locate one for free.Front screen unit with frame is removed from the front but there are pitfalls to avoid when replacing the screens.
How much is the inside glass behind the screen
Hitachi has two screens (other than a clear screen protector some have) The two inner screens are only sold as a pair---over 400) If the mirror behind them is damaged look to see no glass has scratched the inner screen as it will show---Mirror can be available either from Hitachi or some after market places have them.If the mirror--Google the model number with "replacement mirror"
How to turn on HDTV
set is HD ready which means it needs the Hd output from a set top box connected to the correct input on the rear for HD channels.
51F59A red screen all the time
1. entire grill below front screen must come off (usually held in place by screws in back on either side.)2. locate and remove inspection plate dead center behind it.3. Locate small black plastic block with 6 black controls built in; three (look carefully) left to right are focus--DO NOT TOUCH THOSE.The other three are Screens and will be marked with tiny letters r g b (red, green, blue) and green is always middle.Locate the red screen (not FOCUS).With set on adjust red down just slightly(usually less than 1/8 turn.Since the set will be on TAKE CARE NOT TO TOUCH ANYTHING INSIDE THE SET WHEN YOU DO THIS.IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ASK BEFORE YOU TRY THIS.
I have a Hitachi F5F110.
51F510 SHOULD use two STK392-150 CONVERGENCE integrated circuits. Too much to explain here but I am available on the site as a pay question attention: SD TECH.sd tech

When watching Football or Baseball
Hi,
I am sorry for the trouble.
This is a common problem with these products.
Please initially check that the leads from the sat box/cable box you
may be using are home both at the cable/sat box and the tv itself make
sure they are home you may have to push on the plugs then if no go ....
Is it like this on other inputs like a dvd or vcr please?
If you press the menu button of the sets own remote control is the color on the menu screen good or bad?
If you observe that the magic focus text is perfectly green, then it is not a good news. There are few issues i have seen with these sets in my shop which matches the condition you description :
The set has 3 tubes red/green/blue now you have got green because you
have seen it when the convergence shuffles on the magic focus, the
problem is the signal for the green drive for the picture is missing so
checks initially will need to be made on the green tube card to see what
is happening here, like a failed transistor dry/cold joints or even the
tube itself
Can you use a multimeter and can use a soldering iron?
If you want to get it repaired, you would be looking at $300 - $400.
Let me know,if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

Your convergence has failed and needs to be repaired. Once quick test is to goto your convergence menu and see if you can adjust red and blue. If not its has failed and needs to be fixed. You can call in a repair shop or you can get the parts and instructions from www.TvRepairKits.com and do the repair yourself. Its a fairly easy DIY fix.
