Sony bravia KDL-52W3000 broke - Sony BRAVIA KDL-52W3000 52 in. LCD Television

I have a different Sony, but I think they all work the same. Go to menus (Press Home) Then select "Settings" and select "Screen Settings". Set Wide Mode to "full", Auto Wide to "off" , Auto Display Area to "off", Display Area to "normal". I hope this works for you

I would try shopjimmy.com, or tvpartsguy.com, or from one of Ebay's reputable online sellers.

just replace t-con board

Does set do this on all inputs including one with a DVD unit connected and playing? Answer will at least narrow possible reason down a bit.

The real question here is does this happen with a DVD etc. being played?

Hi,
Change aspect ratio of screen through screen format option in Menu.
Hope this will fix your screen size issue in Sony KDL-52W3000 tv.
Thanks.

I have the same tv with the same problem. My tv is about 3 1/2 years old. I took it to the shop yesterday and today they told me that I had a bad lcd panel and a bad FL1 circuit board. They also told me it was going to be $3800.00 dollars to fix. I am now on my way to buy another tv, needless to say it will not be a Sony. Sony knows about this problem and refuse to do anything about it. Good luck.

Most likely this is caused by a defective main board. Changing the main board will fix the issue about 95% of the time.

To be absolutely sure, the voltages need to be checked on the power supply. If they are not the values listed in the service manual, then you should replace the power supply instead (accounts for the other 5% of the time).

try cleaning T-CON Board to Lcd panel cable

there are diferent versions of panel
