Hi Joanne I would suspect the quality of component converter device... HDMI is the latest state of the art for HD (High Definition 1080) video signal. Poor cables or poor connectors can cause weird results. It's best to go from HDMI to HDMI. If the tv doesn't have a HDMI input then it probably can't handle the newer standard. Component Video is an old standard for video before we got high definition. It uses three separate wires. Try swapping the coloured wires around to see the result. Good Luck HDMI Wikipedia the free encyclopedia Component video

Hi,Unplug the unit from the outlet for at least 1 hour and check if the symptoms persists. If yes, check if the unit can give an error code by following the steps below.- Power on the unit and wait until the initialization takes place.- Press the front panel "Input" and "Menu" buttons at the same time and hold it for 5 seconds, it will activate the error code mode. LED flashes a two digit error code. Example, if the error code is "22" the LED will flashes two times pause and then flashes two times and will repeat the error code for 5 times."12" means no error has occured.Please let me know what will be the result to assist you further.Regards,[email protected]

This is an older picture-tube projection TV. There are just a few things that can affect all three color tubes at the same time. One of these is "Blanking" and the other is the High Voltage. Blanking happens when there is not a good signal to the TV, and the high voltage and therefore picture are shut off to protect the high voltage system. Make sure there is a good, strong signal to test it from, like a DVD player, otherwise the TV could blank off from low signal levels. A signal good enough to produce sound may not be good enough to keep the picture on, so that is not a good indication of good signal. The other, High Voltage, is complicated and dangerous to work on and best left to a qualified technician to work on. High voltage in a TV can hurt or even kill you if you get across it.

You need to use a regular RCA type audio cable. White and red connectors. The HDMI cable won't pass audio.

Hi,

If problem is power board I dont understand why you replaced the STKs on convergence board.

Here is the replacement power board, try first to fix it at component level:

Here all parts.

The SMPS section is not oscillating. Your TV need a through checkup. If you are not familiar with electronics, do not attempt to repair. Whether you suffer fatal electric shock. Instead, contact any experienced service technician, or the nearest service center.

HDMI standard is a bear, especially "Older" versions. It should be possible to input HDMI to a DVI, either DVI-I or DVI-D, input, there are however DVI analogue too, in fact we have, 3 type of them, they are, DVI-I, DVI-A & DVI-D.... Also some HDMI do not send the Audio over it, as it should, so all in all it can be a pickle. So you MUST get a converter that works with your sort of DVI. You would have to select that DVI, input, which may be under Auxillary, or External or the like, try scrolling through your AV inputs, see if you "Find" it. if so, the set will "Read" the signal and display it automatically. The Audio, however will have to be done via the AV sockets, the Red & White stereo IN, from the DVD etc. If you have any other inputs such as Component Video, Green, Red, Blue, then this is the best way... The Audio, again must be routed to the AV, the Red & White Jacks. So ensure you have those outputs on your new DVD.
I have included a couple of links below about DVI & HDMI for your convenience. http://www.datapro.net/techinfo/dvi_info.html http://www.hdmi.org/learningcenter/faq.aspx

A few notes:First if the mirror which hangs at a angle facing the screens comes apart it can come forward and smash the inner screen.The best way to proceed is remove the entire front screen frame:remove speaker grill on front under the screen (if cloth it should pull out in one piece (a few are two piece).With it removed look under the bottom front edge of the screen unit--left to right there are several identical screws and you have to remove those.If the front controls (vary by cabinet style) are in the bottom front of the screen unit there will be wires from them hanging down--should be an inspection plate dead center behind where the grill was.follow the wires from the front control board down with the inspection plate removed and locate the one or two inline plugs and disconnect them (they pull apart and are marked)With the screws at bottom of screen frame removed and the keyboard free pull out the frame from bottom and slid up about 4-6 inches the entire frame with the screens still in it.Do not when you do this twist the frame as you can pop the screens right out.Set the frame and screens to one side making sure not against the screens and avoid touching the inside screen inside the frame.You should now be able to see the mirror clearly, be careful if cracked as when you release the screws that hold it in it may come apart and use gloves---broken mirrors are very sharp.Mirror should if you see the plastic and wood slots for it not be too hard to remove and replace. Vac out any small glass as light from the set inside can reflect onto the new mirror or even the inside of the inner screen and be seen in the picture.You almost certainly are going to have to get the mirror from Mitsubishi---price it with shipping but since its a 55 inch mirror almost any mitsubishi mirror that size will work perfectly--some shops save them....hint.Most of those mirrors were at or over 100 dollars and a few sites on the net sell replacements in case Mitsubishi is too high.Hope this helps and let me know if need advice.

Model indicated here DOES NOT HAVE A COLOR WHEEL- so you might want to enter customer menu and call up CONVERGENCE-THEN advanced convergence---a grid of yellow lines should appear----are they showing blue or red skewed etc?Other is to look with color off to see if black and white screen or not?
