Kp57hw40 is a greenish color

If green appears to bleed out of objects then it's probably the saturation level is to high. If that doesn't work you can try changing the Hue setting more towards red and away from green.
If neither works and you don't have a warranty I would call your a local TV repair company.

Wd65738 flickering

I had a TV do that about a year ago, the repair man said it was the color wheel inside the tv. I changed the bulb to see if he was BS'ng me and eventually got the manufacturer to send a color wheel and I change it myself, was very easy...TV works fine ever since. Hope this helps

I have a mitsubishi wd 62530 08' model had blue showing through left side of tv working towords the middle, screen looks greenish yellow what is the problem

This is a known issue with these sets.

They use an OPTICAL LIGHT ENGINE which the lamp shines directly into: the blue section (it has blue,red and green sections with lens and baffles) is the first to get hit by the light and its heat.

Commonly it burns that area (blue) first.

This is permanent damage and either the display chip has to be replaced (over 200 part and not a do it yourself replacement) or the entire engine has to be replaced.

Sony and similar brands have the same problem--Sony is fixing a lot of them even if out of warranty for free (class action lawsuit!).

This is a 98% certainty in your case.

You may want to contact Mitsubishi to see what if anything they will do.

You might not get a straight answer from them so GOOGLE the model number and research this on the internet-------

Projection TV sets have two very common problems. One is convergence ( 3D/Warped video) the other is CRT fluid ( Dull Video). Below are more details for both items. Also, complete repair kits with instructions and repair support are avail from site such as www.TvRepairKits.com

Common Problem #1) Convergence has gone out

Projection TV sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the video to look normal. When its out of alignment the video will look 3D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the TV menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired.

This is a very common failure on these projection sets and a fairly simple DIY fix. All projection sets including Samsung, RCA, Sony, Philip Magnavox, Panasonic, Pioneer, Akai, GE, JVC, Toshiba, and others at some point will have the same problem.

Common Symptoms include....



  • Screen looks 3D
  • Colors don't line up
  • One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
  • Screen is bowed or warped.
  • TV shuts off after powering on. Power light will blink. TV may also make a chirping noise.
Here are some pics of convergence problems.

For more more examples and find a fix using this link on Fixya http://www.fixya.com/support/r2861467-solution_video_looking_whiteish_dull

Common Problem #2) CRT Fluid is Cloudy

Projection TV tubes have a liquid coolant that is used to keep them from overheating. After many years the coolant in the blue and green tubes will become cloudy and cause the screen to look dull, red/orange, etc. You may even see halos around images.

Picture of a set that needs the fluid changed.

The colors are looking strange when the DVD plays. The colors look blue, neon greenish-yellow, but no reds. The colors are perfect when tv is on, but dvd screen, once movie begins, has strange colors. ...

Try placing the dvd-player as far as you can away from the TV. It may be creating EMI (electro-magnetic interference). Ensure that the wires from the DVD-to-TV are not positioned close to other electronic devices -try moving them.

You say the TV works fine on its own, so that is good; there is probably no big magnet or speaker near the TV.

If it is not anything external causing interference, then yes, your DVD player is probably malfunctioning. Try borrowing a friends..

Mitsubishi tv problem

im assumiong you checked the tint in the menu options. if not go check it. other wise it sounds like you have a weak tube, or you do not know how to adjust the screen brightness. this is how i adjust the brightness (you dont need to touch the focus). turn the red up until your whole screen is tinted red, then do the same with the blue and the green. then go through each one and turn down just a little till your pic darkens a little. good luck

Sony 65 Inch Projection TV Color Red Green Separation

Sounds like a convergence issue. Call Sony for an ASC that can come out and give you an estimate. You are probably looking at $200-400 to do the repair.
