Sony KP-43HT20 convergence problem

My Sony KP-43HT20 projection TV was very good. I accidentally pushed Flash Focus button and it lose the convergence. I pushed Flash Focus button again many times. It could almost convergent the red and green colors, but couldn’t move the blue color as shown in the figures. The blue tube couldn’t project the parallel lines and the pictures are blurred, Could someone advise me how to fix the convergence problem? Thanks.

    I really couldn't find the 3.15 amp slow blow pico fuse for STK392-560. Would you please help?

    Ladywinn:



    Sorry that I haven’t got the time to replace the STKs. I found that the pico fuse PS8006 (3.15 amp slow blow pico fuse) is open and 5 resistors (4.7 ohm, 1%, .5 w) for blue vertical are slightly dark. I assume I also need them to be replaced with STK together. However, I don't know where to get them. Place advice.



    Thank you so much.

Where is the magic focus button?

Most Sony Rear Projection TV have a small door under the screen with some manual controls. Push on spring loaded door to open. Magic Focus is near the bottom and labeled.

If Magic Focus does not restore for correct operation, check the Convergence Gallery to confirm if you have a convergence fault that needs repair. #8 is the Sony menu.

How easy is sony kp-43ht20 converge ic chip replacement?

Easy is not a good description... due to the cabinet size of this model, there is not much room to work. You will need to disconnect a lot and unfasten a lot of wires so that you can pull the chassis out of the lower cabinet. Then you will need to remove the D board screws and the Convergence amplifier screws (the amp will be right in your face, you can;t miss them... 2 large heat sinks right in a row. After you do that, you will probably need to change 1 of the 2 fuse links on the G board (the board the power cord plugs into). These are the supply Vcc for the convergence amps. They are 5A fuse links located on the upper/mid, right side on the PCB. Use caution, you need to discharge the circuit before you place the fuse in or you may pop the new (or remaining old) fuse. it's best to use a 100 ohm resistor to bleed the circuit on the input side of the fuse. You can do this by touching a legs of the resistor to the fuses legs. To be sure, just do it on both sides of the fuses. (resistor touch to fuse 1, side 1... and also to fuse 2, side 1. Repeat on other side of fuses.) Bleed for at least 5 seconds. After that, change the fuse(s), put it back together, power it up... press the Flash Focus button on the front of the TV. It you need to do further convergence, you can find information all over the place... or post it here.

Kp-43ht20 sony projection convergence issue with RGB

There should be a setting in your menu to adjust the convergence. if you have no luck correcting it this way you will need to have a repair center look at it.

Sony KP-53S75 blue convergence problem...

Good Day, Martin Ping;

Picture won't merge? It sounds like your TV has had a failure in the CONVERGENCE CIRCUIT by replacing those IC's should correct your TV's problem.

Good Night and Luck, big IRISH.
