Hello,

I'm a 100% certain your LCD panel is bad, I've run across a lot of Sony/Samsung's with the same problem. It can be fixed but involves taking the TV apart. I have 5 flat screens in my home, 3 of them had the same problem yours had, I patched them and they are working fine! A replacement panel will cost more than a new TV set so that's not an option. If you do no wish to fix, I would suggest putting it on Craigslist as a parts unit, someone will buy it. If I have been a help to you please sign my guest book

you need to replace defective capacitors in the power supply of the tv

Settings. It sounds like the convergence. It needs to be adjusted. Have had this problem before. A lot of people actually throw there TVA away because they have this problem and they think its broken, when its usually just a simple fix of adjusting the convergence. You have to make sure the little box, on the convergence settings is in the middle. Hope it fixes ur problem. :)

This model is Australian

Here is the USA model:

CONVERGENCE PROBLEMS ARE COMMON ON THIS MODEL. THIS WILL REQUIRE PARTS REPLACEMENT.

if it's red, blue, or green ghosts, then you need new convergence chips, stk 392-570, have to be soldered in.

It sounds like a convergence problem. A fairly common reason for thisproblem is the convergence chips have failed. They are usually referredto as "STK" chips since the model number of these chips start with STK.I will put a link to another part of this site where someone has postedpictures and a link where to get the parts should you decide to fix ityourself. Look at Ecullier2012's posting. Jean's posted site will notfix this problem. Hope this helps you out. Let me know.

This is a convergence problem. Look in the back for a couple of large black ICs attached to a heatsnik. These should be marked STKxxx. These are the convergence ICs and either have bad connections or are defective. If you can solder, try resoldering the pins on these ICs. If that fails to resolve the problem, replace the ICs. There may be other parts that need to be replaced as well. I'll look up your model to find the other parts to check. The convergence board as an assembly, I believe, is no longer available. The parts that you require are available.
