NO PICTURES ON SCREEN, JUST LINES, MENU WORKS BUT NOT VISION ON SCREEN

Go to menu then setup see if you have convergence on Menu?
Let me know if you do or not?

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

Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony,Samsung, JVC, Philip Magnavox, Panasonic, Akai, Pioneer, Hitachi, Zenith, and others. You can get a convergenece repair kit wiith instructions from the links below.

Try going into the video section of your menu, and pressing RESET on your remote control. If this doesn't fix it, try your quick start guide for setting the convergence and focus.

SOME UNITS USUALLY DO HAVE A MENU FUNCTION TO FLIP THE SCREEN , HOWEVER IF THE UNIT HAS BEEN WORKING THIS WAY FOR A WHILE THEN IT MAY BE A SIGN THE UNIT IS REACHING ITS LIFE EXPECTANCY, IF REMOVING THE POWER DOESN'T WORK IT'S INTERNAL.

What model is your tv? Panasonics have a 'self-alignment' system in the menu, or a manual alignment that the menu will actually walk you through. Other System's will be able to do that also, such as Hitachi.
