Picture goes out - but has sound

We have a Hitachi projection tv model 53fdx01b. We recently moved the tv to our beach house. It played fine for about 2 days then the problem started. The last couple days the tv turns on with picture and sound - after about and hour or so the picture turns darker and goes out but sound stays on. We turn the tv off and wait a little while and when we turn it back on we have normal picture and sound but the problem continues to repeat itself again in about and hour. What might my problem be.

    Hello Puggy666
    thanks so much for your assistance, we will give this a try - my husband is a handyman, not sure we know much about tvs but we will give it a try. If the problem is the joints around the tuner would it allow the tv picture to come and go after it cools down?

Hitachi rear projecton tv

your model uses two STK392-110 Convergence ICs. Hitachi also recomends replacing the feed resistors which are two 2.2 ohm 1watt, two 1.5 ohm 1watt, one 3.3 ohm 1watt and one 1.8 ohm 1watt resistor. You can get repolacement ICs and resistors at the following link and they provide step by step installation instructions with pictures. Heres the link.
