Samsung ln46a550p3f has distorted color

Potential causes and solutions:

High Contrast Mode:
Some TVs have a high contrast mode that can inadvertently cause the picture to appear negative or distorted.
Try this: Hold down the volume button on your Samsung TV remote and navigate to the settings related to contrast. Turn off the high contrast mode, and see if that resolves the issue.

HDMI Connection Issues:
A loose or faulty HDMI connection between your TV and an external device (such as a cable box, gaming console, or streaming device) can lead to color abnormalities.
Check the HDMI cable for damage and ensure it is securely plugged in. If necessary, try a different HDMI cable.
Additionally, an HDMI handshake failure during setup can cause color problems. Restarting both the TV and the connected device might help.

Picture Mode Settings:
Sometimes, the picture mode on your TV affects color accuracy. Modes like "Vivid" or "Dynamic" may exaggerate colors.
Switch to a more standard mode like "Standard" or "Cinema" to see if the pink tint disappears.

T-Con Board Issues (Specific to Some TVs):
If you have a Samsung TV, a polluted T-Con flat cable could be the culprit.
To address this, clean the contacts on the T-Con board using isopropyl alcohol. First, remove any dust. If unsure, consider seeking professional assistance

try to use the settings from your remote control or the front panel. it must have the adjustment for it like contrast, brightness, etc..

Saludos Franco Dosil

as my experience, the most possible reason should be the color wheel or its photo sensor board.

firstly try to clean its photo sensor board, or have to replace a new wheel.

i just have this wheel, when you need to replace it, contact me freely

Hi,

Dear User...

You can adjust the brightness and contrast of your monitor to improve the readability of text and to make digital pictures appear more like they'll look when printed.

To improve the results when adjusting the brightness and contrast settings for your display, use Display Color Calibration. (Display Color Calibration helps you adjust these color settings and others.) For more information about calibrating your display color in Windows, see Calibrate your display.

The way you adjust brightness and contrast varies and depends on your specific display.

• Brightness and contrast buttons on the front of the monitor. Some monitors have brightness and contrast controls on the front and use the standard symbols shown in the following image.

• On-screen menu. You can change the brightness and contrast settings for some displays by using an on-screen menu, and then setting the brightness and contrast in the resulting menu. Many times, you can view the on-screen menu by pressing a button-possibly labeled Menu-on the front of the monitor.

Thanks....

It has Brightness, Contrast, Color adjustments. Here is the user manual:

go to your menu select color, select user, and adjust RGB from user. same level R-60, G-60, B-60.

try going to the setup screen button left of adjustments







try going to the set up menu on the left of the buttons come down to the slider control just above the information icon then go across to color reset hope this helps regards Jim

The problem is that everyone has a different "taste" when it comes to these settings. I like to turn the color all the way down to start with. You should (if the set is factory adjusted correctly) have a black and white picture. If it's not B&W, then there's something inside the set that needs adjusted and you should get a service call. Then I adjust brightness and contrast to get the best B&W picture. Then I turn the color up until I'm happy with the color level, then I adust tint.

Hope that helps

You can RESET the monitor setting externally by clicking adjustment menu button goto RESET press ok. If contrast and birghtness not set properly light will not be properly visible
