That sounds like the screen and focus controls you are adjusting. It sounds like you have a bad HV Splitter inside the TV. #205064 or #204809 Depending on your model number. http://www.matelectronics.com/acatalog/Mat_Electronics_Replacement_Parts___TV_134.html sells them for about 20 bucks.

Dir TV projection Techcions, I own RCA Model:P52937 Chassis No.PTK195M26B. After a big flood here in Chicago, my basement got flooded and my projection TV was in water up to 1 foot. Befor I turned it on, I dreid it out perfectly, then, I turned it on, and a couple components from the power supply got burned up to the point where I am not able to read the part numbers that are on it. I was wondering if you have this kind of chassis and model service manual for this projection TV, or conponet part number i location 101 on mother boatd power supply. Thank you in advance, Darius If you prefeer, you may call my cell phone: 773-875-3926

I have the same model and the same problem - the picture just started getting slightly blurry, and moving objects get sort of grainy and jagged around the edges. I'd like to try the flyback adjustment you mention, but I have no idea what to look for. Is there a guide or reference that could help with this stuff? Schematics?

the best thing you can do is take it to a shop and have it repaired as the problem has gotten worse..

SOURCE: rca tv wont come on at all

there is an inherant problem with rca tv's
they are not vented properly as far as im concerned

right in front of the fly back is a small part in mine it is grey i think it's a resister
when i took the back off i saw that it was sparking on 1 end ( wholy chit ) scared the **** out of me


if your chip is sparking try this fix if not turning on or no pic look inside and look for burns vthere a tell tale sign of over heating

what i did was crazzy but it worked

i took the stupid chip off by pulling on it what the puck it was screwed any how

then took it to my local electronics store they tested it and told me it was fine just had to but a new 1 since i broke a pin on 1 end

nothing grinding down ends of the case and adding some wire to the pins so i had somthing to solder to

the i re soldered the thing back to the board dam thing was trickey but as long as you are smart and gentl and for god sake un plug the set there is 600 volts inside if not more that can kill you near this chip

it now works fine my 52 inch tv has cost me $7.00 in gas and about 3 hours of time
what i noticed was that the chip over heated at the solder joint and burnt the hole bigger so i soldered and wired to the next conection and re soldered it carefully i did not remove or un plug any thing i just remeoved the board from it's slide mount and carrefully tiped t of only poping 2 conections witch were easy 2 put back on the tv is great it just hates running for 6 monthes at a time hell you shut off your $500.00 computer every once and a while dont you ???


then why would you not shut off your 2000 dollar tv every day

well hope this helps all or at least some of us who cant afford a high priced repair person to show up and tell us it will be 3-400 to fix but they will give us 50.00 for the old chasie and fix it and re sell it for 500 in a refurb tv store like factory direct in canada
