If you have gone into the customer menu and selected convegence--is blue or red out of place and will not adjust?

Akai is a brand name and the sets are actually SAMSUNG---this model
(pt5598) uses two STK-392-040 CONVERGENCE CHIPS.

If convergence is your problem--both chips need to be replaced--there are also some fuses near them that sometimes fail---not the most easy set to do this kind of repair on.

If it is not a Convergence problem---Only one other possible thing happens with these=====if you turn the color off or go to a black and white program----does the screen have a yellow looking cast to it?

This may be mostly in the center or top etc ---let me know if it is convergence or the YELLOW looking screen and I can tell you exactly what the problem is and if it is worth fixing.

    Remember, if you need any help or advice let me know---a pair of those chips is not real expensive.

Tv is yellow orange color what is problem

The model indicated does not have a "bulb" as it uses 3 picture tubes.

Examine the picture with color set at zero---stand back and look= if the screen has a mostly yellow (all or part of the screen) you have bad Glycol in the blue picture tube(if need explanation ask) and a look in the lens of the Blue tube will confirm this.

If able with back off and a small mirror look in each lens--red picture, green picture and blue picture.

If the Blue looks like a floodlight with little or no image--bad glycol in that tube.

Picture is yellow/blue (no red)

KDF means it is a LCD rear projection set so you likely have a problem inside the optical engine it uses or the associated box inside connected to and a part of that engine.

My tv screen when on turns yellow then after a while it will switch back to normal colors what can be wrong with it....

Televisions covered: all Projection with yellow picture, but not Projection TVs with a yellowish tint surrounding objects in a nearly normal picture.

Yellow = red + green
normal picture = red + blue + green (RGB). See illustration.

12_27_2011_5_00_56_am.png

Fig. 1 Additive color mixing in an RGB monitor, or RGB Projection TV.

The circuitry powering your blue output, or the blue light engine itself is starting to fail.

Operating Theory:

The lamp module shines a bright light into the optical unit; there are a series of lens and baffles, and at the top of the light engine, a lens puts the picture into a mirror which is reflected onto the screen; All video and color is processed thru the light engine. Blue most commonly fails first, leaving a yellow picture.

Picture loss after picture begins to flash. blue and yellow light

Most likely the lamp is dying. Try replacing the lamp before calling a repair tech. What does the Owners manual say about the blink lights?
