Sony KP-65WV700 65" Rear Projection HDTV - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Since the set does come on try to see if it has a error buffer.Set off and using the Sony remote: Display, 5, volume down, Power.If it has that and comes on you should see a box in middle of the screen with several items listed-----each should have a zero to the right of it----any with a number indicates an error found and the number indicates the number of times it has happened.Let me know what you find if anything--I can offer further help but first want to know if a error has been recorded.

Some of these had bad picture tubes--(model indicated here uses 3 tubes)Simple test is go to a black and white channel and turn color to zero= is the screen black and white or some other color?Also go to a unused video input and look at screen=all you should see is black screen with the input number in green= any other color and something may just need to be adjusted.

Hello sburdano,Welcome, and thank you for using FixYa!To answer your question: The colors are all working, they are just out of alignment.Judging by what you have said hear, I would assume that the television have been moved, rather roughly, or bumped into rather abruptly. The color wheel will need to be re-aligned to the lamp and lens. You need to find out what your local TV Repair shop would charge for re-tuning.Have a great day!

Yes

take a blow dryer blow out all the dust make sure all your connections are in good sometimes moisture causes it to do this.i hate this t.v

First thing to try is - do a "Convergence"

Your TV owners manual will tell you how to do this, but here's a video and instructions:

How-to video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=esk4nYZKFcg
how-to instructions: www.ehow.com/how_2034880_perform-convergence--tv.html

cost to you: $zero

If a "convergence" doesn't resolve the problem, repost your problem, including the information
that the problem wasn't resolved by doing a "Convergance" procedure.

Hi,
Re-solder convergence output ICs pins and nearby big resistors that might solve your tv picture problem and if that does not help then replace both convergence output ICs to fix the problem.
Convergence output ICs would be available in local repair parts shop or google it.
Thanks.

that is most definately the lights have blown if it has 3 like most rear projections do but later ones have one well if it has one it is the lamp if it has 3 which i think it has it is the lamp controller i would charge 50 pounds at my store i am a tv technician so get ur local tv repair shop on the phone and there ya go it will be the controller or lap a lamp would cost u 120 and up but it has 3 im sure

I had a similar problem. I had a 52" RCArear projection tv. It would do this when I initially turned on the television, but then after a few "on/off, on/off, on/off" cycles it would stay on. Eventually it started doing it more; until finally there was a spark and that was it. The tv was dead.The bloggers called it "the blinking green light of death" (because of green light on the panel).The power board is going out.ALSO holding down the Input and Menu buttons afterward will give you some diagnostic information via 2 sets of blinking indicator lights.

You may very well have issues with capacitors on this set being that it is or very similar to the V26 chassis. Since I have spare test lamps laying around, I would normally try that first. If the lamp still would not stay lit, I would then suspect the electrical chassis (capacitors). When I suspect the chassis, I can usually verify it by pulling it out and partially disassemble it and find blown capacitors

Very common problem throught out ur DLP tv live,will happen again again many times for the tv life times.Ur tv have a problems known as convergence problems,it dead.Tv have colors lines R,G,B mis alignments,have colors shadows pictures or 3D pictures look alike?The tv convergence board have dead 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all of it resistors too.These parts must be replaced on the tv convergence board to solved the tv convergence picture problems.The shop,will cost u like $300-350 for parts and labors.

I don't understand FUBR.
The problem sounds like the A1 voltage has gone low value giving poor video.
Check the HV controls. BE CAREFUL!!!!!

If what you see is a green line or lines on a black screen, it is the Green CRT failing. There is no real good fix for this. Sony does not support these set very much. It would require sending the Green CRT and Coupler assembly to Sony so they can mount a new CRT on the Coupler. The cost of doing this and still having 2 other CRT's that can fail in the same way makes it really a no fix.
You would be money ahead to replace it with a LCD or LED product.
I hope this helps,

Most likely it is the green CRT that is failing. Unfortunately Sony does not support these models much anymore. What they require is to send the CRT with the Optic Coupler to them so they can mount a new green CRT to the Coupler then send it back to you. For the cost and time it takes to do this I recommend you replace the set with a LCD, LED, flat screen set.

Hello, It has been my experience that once you replace any one tube of a CRT projection tube TV, the CRT that has been replaced will have more emission and it will reflect in the picture quality, I mean that there will be more definition, brightness, contrast in the blue images in the overall picture than the red and green, it will also show up as excessive in the overall gray scale adjust.

You either have bad Blue Tube or you need to adjust the Blue Screen control down that controls the drive to Picture Tube
You will have to remove the Front bottom panel and behind it is the Focus/Screen control Block it will have 3 controls on top for Focus to each Tube and 3 controls under them for Screen drive to R/G/B Tubes

Tv have a problems known as a convergence problems,it dead.The tv colors lines R,G,B mis alignment,have colors shadows pictures or 3D look pictures.The tv convergence board the 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all it resistors are dead.These parts,must be replaced on the tv convergence board to solved the tv convergencce picture problems.The shop,will cost u $300-350 for parts and labors.

hi there
we have a horizontal deflection problem
Q8035 Q8038 transistor shorted on D board

This is a wonderful post. The things given are unanimous and needs to be appreciated by everyone.

Hi, if the tubes fade from full brilliance to black over a few seconds, the possible sounds like dry joints in the CRT heater circuits. possibly caused by dry joints (bad solder joints). Most repairs involving rear projection TV's can be a pig (mainly relating to access to work on the circuit boards)

You have a faulty part either in the power source or the high tension module. To identify the faulty part the tv must be opened and tested - this is a job for someone qualified in that, so call a repairman, there's nothing more you can do.
