My tv has a blue cloudy color around the edges of the screen mainly on the right side and somewhat on the top and bottom. thhe size and shape seem to change day to day. is it something that can be fixed at a low cost or is it junk. the tv is about three year old.
You are going to need an optical assy (A-1084-658-A) and it runs about $1257.50

i guess its the old magnet problem maybe in fluke u or someone in your house had taken a magnet around your tv try fixing it with a magnet by moving the magnet again around the screen and using the same old technique by moving the magnet slowly on the defected area and then quickly taking it off

Blue shadow band about 2-5 inches deep across bottom of screen, can be seen best when the picture is in dark or black screen.
Same model tv- There is a blue cloudy part in the lower right corner of the screen, which is always visible, but more prominent when the picture is dark. We've only had the TV 2 1/2 - 3 years. I dont want to pay that much money to fix it- what if it happens again?
I've got the same problem. Blue at bottom and lower right corner.
