Color is fading and there's a red trail even though the convergence has been repaired.

SOURCE: color convergence

If your model is 43UWX10B you need two STK392-110 Convergence ICs. and one each of the following 1watt reseistors. 3.3 ohm, 1.8 ohm, 2.7 ohm, 1.5 ohm, 3.9 ohm, and 2.2 ohm they are in order RK42, 46, 50, 54, 58 and RK60.

SOURCE: Can not align red even though convergence board WS-55819

Did you replace the center board with the STK-392-570 chips or the Digital convergence board mounted on it?


98% of the time if you have a convergence problem it is on the center board---the small board on the left under the metal shield box stores and controls the convergence of this set.


WHICH DID YOU REPLACE?

I am here to help----I have fixed hundreds of Mitsubishi sets with convergence troubles.

SOURCE: I can't adjust my green

Hi,
If the green color can't be align anymore in the convergence alignment through the menu, this is an indication of faulty convergence board inside. Your unit used STK-392-110 as convergence chip(IC) mounted in the heat sink. Replaced this IC and some of the resistors around to have a best picture again. You may do-it-yourself if you have a knowledge in soldering and disoldering technique. Just prepare some tools and I will give you the link to order online for convergence repair kit to save some hundreds of dollar for service fee alone. Click the link below to view how much it will cost.
Convergence Repair Kit
STK-392-110
6.8ohms/1watt resistor
But before you make an order for parts, check first the board for bad solder joints(cracked/dried/cold solder) because it will do the same symptoms. Re-solder as much as possible.
If you don't have necessary tools and test instrument and can't troubleshoot the unit yourself, I would advice you to look for a qualified tv technician to do the job for you.
Hope I helped you.
Have a nice day!
Thanks for using Fixya.

Projection TV sets have two very common problems. One is convergence ( 3D/Warped video) the other is CRT fluid ( Dull Video). Below are more details for both items. Also, complete repair kits with instructions and repair support are avail from site such as www.TvRepairKits.com

Common Problem #1) Convergence has gone out

Projection TV sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the video to look normal. When its out of alignment the video will look 3D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the TV menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired.

This is a very common failure on these projection sets and a fairly simple DIY fix. All projection sets including Samsung, RCA, Sony, Philip Magnavox, Panasonic, Pioneer, Akai, GE, JVC, Toshiba, and others at some point will have the same problem.

Common Symptoms include....



  • Screen looks 3D
  • Colors don't line up
  • One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
  • Screen is bowed or warped.
  • TV shuts off after powering on. Power light will blink. TV may also make a chirping noise.
Here are some pics of convergence problems.

For more more examples and find a fix using this link on Fixya http://www.fixya.com/support/r2861467-solution_video_looking_whiteish_dull

Common Problem #2) CRT Fluid is Cloudy

Projection TV tubes have a liquid coolant that is used to keep them from overheating. After many years the coolant in the blue and green tubes will become cloudy and cause the screen to look dull, red/orange, etc. You may even see halos around images.

Picture of a set that needs the fluid changed.

My grandfather has a Hitachi 50ux58b and is having double vision or shadowing -- whatever it's called and redness color fading-like. Was told it was a convergence IC that needs replaced -- uncle looked...

try not to do repair yourself. the tv holds high voltage even when unplugged. you could KILL yourself. If red is fading the convergence ic will not help. you need to replace all the guns. red, blue, and green. usually each tube or gun is around 300 dollars each.

Color!

the dull and faded color could mean you need to change the coolant.
you could also try and adjust your convergence.

Here is a quick test....

Using your original remote go-to the tv settings then goto the convergence section.

Try to adjust the red and then the blue convergence.



You should be able to move them up, down, left, and right.

If you can't move them in all directions your convergence chips are bad and should be replaced. This is a common problem.

You need to replace the convergence chips and convergence resistors. Check the site www.TvRepairKits.com. They have put together a kits for most models. If you don't see a kit for your set send them a quick note and they will put one together for you. Their kits include a photo instruction guide, original OEM Sanyo STK chips, convergence resistors, pico fuses, etc.

What you will need to do is replace the coolant and clean the crt. You can get a repair kit from www.TvRepairKits.com that includes replacement coolant, photos. instructions, etc.

Color fade

use the advanced options page and reset the factor blue and red convergence defaults then do re apply the auto color defaults color at first it seemed very red (which is good because red was the missing factor in the green picture) but after reseting all the color and tints to the normal ranges I then reset the color auto correct again and all seems fine.
