Sony kdf-e42a10 42in LCD WEGA green screen

TV turns to a green screen after watching TV (digital Tivo). It's as if the all the other colors disappear and green is only there. images are still visible but only with green color. Also, when cable is turned off, there is green snow on the screen.

Colors return after turning the TV off for a few minutes until the motor shuts off and then turning it back on. The green color returns after a few minutes though.

The screen is green and blinks

Hi,If there's any discoloration,pixilation or hues on the tv it will be an issue w the light engine's 3 lcd chips.This link explains how the lcd technology works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLLHnQ4y-wo Basically there's 3 LCD chips that create the colors and picture by blending together all when the light of the lamp goes through them.When they start to melt they will start to show the symptoms.You will need to replace the 3 lcd chips or replace the light engine.Good luck and God bless your house!

We have had our KDF 55 WF655 set for 5 years and replace a bulb about 12 months ago but not the pixels have gone bad showing a blue shadow and now, even worse the center of the screen shows a green hole

Hi,it seems you are experimenting a light engine problem.This is how your tv works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLLHnQ4y-wo So basically the 3 Lcd chips that create the colors and image are going bad and that is why you get that color discoloration.Contact Sony or look for your light engine online.God bless you and your house!

My Sony Grand Wega LCD TV currently has a large blue spot on the left side of the screen when powered on. I have changed the lamp, but this did not solve the problem. Could this be caused by bad component...

Hi,
I'm afraid, it is problem of optics unit block (light engine), there are 3 LCDs red-green-blue for color picture formation and blue LCD sounds bad, please call local TV tech for fix.
Thanks.

Green line running vertically along the edge of picture

If its a LCD projection TV (such as Sony Wega, Hitachi, Epson, Philips, and some Panasonic, some Mitsubishi), and the green image is in the whole screen or just one part as a blob or a line. Is most probably that one of your LCD Color Filters is damaged (burned out or starting to get busted), I don’t know if you can just replace the color filter, I believe you need to change the whole light engine system or the optical block. There are some places around, I found some on ebay but you should definitely try on discountdashmerchantdotcom their price range $260.00 - $330.00
