Rainbow line will come across screen and then goes blank. This is an intermittent problem. Normally if I turn it off and back on, it works. Now it does not.

My TV will be playing, then all of the sudden a multicolored horizontal line will appear and the screen will go blank. It is almost like it is overheating or something. It has been doing this intermittently for a month or two. Normally, I can turn the TV off and back on and it is back to normal. Right now, that is not working. Please help.

Try resoldering the vertical output IC, the IC runs at a hot temperature and this can cause the Pins to have cracked solder.

Toshiba projection tv with lines on screen

I have seen a lot of sets where the problem only happens when the set is first turned on---99% of the time one of the two STK-392-110 CONVERGENCE chips this set uses is Flakey--intermittant---The only way to know is replace both of the convergence IC's and see what you have---a bad IC can cause the set to shut down---and sooner or later the set will just shut down and not come on at all.

Let me know if you need more information about this type of repair as I have done hundreds of sets with this type of problem----every one I have ever seen where the convergence was intermittent----replacing the two IC's cured the problem.

REGARDS, SD TECH

RE:NOKIA 6270 SCREEN PROBLEMS

The software in your mobile has gone phut. It your mobile has a USB port the software can be changed ie reinstalled. You might have got viruses if you connect to the internet with it. If there is no USB socket, try to see if its covered by warranty. does that make sense

Screen goes Blank and then flutters rainbow-like lines

Sounds like to me that the vertical circuit is whacking out....That is not uncommon with this model. Fixing requires resoldering some connections on the deflection yokes. I know that was french for you but bear with me. That repair is very complex. I do it for around $250. That does not include pickup and delivery. We do it in the home for a little less.

BTW, when I say complex let me clarify myseff. The yokes are bolted around the neck of each of the three picture tubes. The solder connections causing the problem are not accessible with out loosening the clamp and rotating them 90 degrees. Then you can get to the solder connections that are bad. Then you put the yoke back where it was. If you don't get it back exactly where it was the picture will have colored ghosts. I can readjust the beam landing of each tube but I know what I'm doing.
