20 Most Recent Pioneer PRO-200 60" Rear Projection Television Questions & Answers

use the cursor program button after reaching eleven and cursor or press up and u will go to the upper numbers or check the 11-1 and 13-1 u may have marked the range as SKIP just deactivate skip on the menu settings and u will be able to enter them

ya mine did something close to the same. at the moment i covered the blue canon inside the tv now the picture isnt 2 of eveything. the tv comes apart easy from the front good luck mike

Im going to guess that if you try turning it on, sometimes you hear a "click" and nothing then the problem persists over and over until it finally turns on? If so, it's a problem with the power that "jumpstarts" the screen. Worn out capacitors on older models don't hold the necessary charge it takes to "start" the inverter that powers the screen. Once those start to go, it's usually bye bye for the tv. That is IF this is your problem. Let me know. Sometimes it makes hissing or cracking noises along with it. hope this helps!

You most likely have cold solder connections on the convergence IC's or on the B+ sources for the convergence. The longer you wait to have this simple repair done, the worse this will get and cost you double or maybe even triple of what it will cost now. Good Luck

Hi Brian,

Bad solder joints will affect the performance of the power supply and may cause a subsequent shutdown but that's is only one of the factors. I've suspected that you have a leaky capacitor in that section or a faulty bulb(lamp). Find first the leaky electrolytic capacitor, sometimes it has a bulged at the top but not all, it is better that you have a capacitor checker/tester. It will drop the voltage and will dis-able the unit. Then checked all the output voltages from the power supply. After you confirmed that all voltages are in good regulation, you need to replace the bulb.
If you don't have necessary tools and test instrument and can't do the job yourself, I would advice you to look for a professional to isolate the problem.

Hope I helped you.

Have a nice day!

Thanks for using Fixya.

The convergence board in your tv has failed and it will have to be refurbished. Use this kit

No solution...but mine is identical problem

The tv have a problems known as a convergence problems,it dead.Tv have colors lines R,G,B mis alignment,have colors shadows pictures or 3D pictures look alike.The tv convergence board have dead 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all it resistors are dead.These parts on the convergence board must be replaced to solved the tv convergence picture problems.The shop,will cost u like $300-350 for parts and labors.

Projection TV sets are known to have two common problems. The first problem that is common to these sets is convergence failure. When this happens the TV will usually look 3D, Wavy/Distorted, etc. It may also shutdown and blink an error code.

The second common problem with Projection TV sets is dull video, halos around objects, white looking video, or red overpowers the screen. This is commonly caused by the fluid in the lens being clouded overs.

bulb is starting to fail. Replace and clean all cooling fans of dust.

i would suspect that you may have a defective coupling capacitor in your preamp or amp, try using another source input or and a different amplifier to help localize the fault, I do not suspect the cable as being the fault, and is more likely and amplifier problem

YOU HAVE A POWER SUPPLY PROBLEM

Check the cables. They can be unpluged!

Your symptoms sounds like a damaged convergence IC.

This is a common failure for this particular television. You should have a red blinking power light on the front of your set that will blink 9 times and this is your solution to your problem.

There are two and large IC’s that control the convergence in a big screen set. They are secured to a very large aluminum heat sink. They will have a part number stamped on them that will start with an STKXXX-XXX, like STK392-110, and they are located on the signal board (on the left as you look into the back of the set).

Most of the time I have performed this repair for around $250.00-$300, but it may vary according to where you live. So repair is most likely the best way to go.

I would also advise that the convergence IC’s be OEM or better, just because they are cheap does not mean that they are a good deal. I have seen the cheap IC’s fail after a short time, even though they look exactly like the OEM IC’s. I think that the bottom line is that you will get what you pay for when it comes to the parts.

As for the labor, I would make sure that the service center that performs the work has some sort of guarantee on the work that they perform. The better service centers will always have some sort of guarantee, at least 30-90 days.

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue.

bad connection. if you have some electronics experience, unplug the tv and carefully open the back , remove the main bord and check for soldering using the magnifier. if you check very good , you will see a sort of small line around the soldering . that small line are bad connection , re-solder them .

This is the most common failure on projection TV's regardless of the brand. It is caused by a failure of the convergence circuit. In particular, there are two STK IC chips, sometimes three depending on the model, and these are power amplifiers that drive the convergence yokes. They typically last 5-6 years and then they fail. Sometimes the failed IC will also burn out one or more of the low-ohm feedback resistors near the heat sink. If this is the case and you don't find/replace the burnt resistors, the picture will still not be converged, and within a short time of turning on the set, the new STK pack(s) can be damaged.

By the desciption of your symtom, I think that you may have lost the blue CRT. You may want to call a local repair servicer to have the set diagnosed. It could be as simple as the video driver on the CRT board, or it could the the CRT itself.

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue.
