Please elaborate on the color not working:
1.Is the picture clear just the color shift is off, or is the picture like watching a black&white Tv?
2.If the colors are just faded, non-contrasting, come and go, go into the programming section and reset adjustments to achieve the desired picture.
3. For colors that fade in and out ( come and go ) absent any information as to the source ( cable, antenna, satellite ) check all source connections, disconnect and reconnect while keeping a an eye out for loose, damaged, or dirty/corroded connections.
4. If determined that that the television does have a component fault, I question the mother board designation as these units have several compartmentalized card/boards. Replacement board availability and location ( as I do not know your location ) is available from :

What happened to my color on screen?

I experienced a similar problem with my 52" Sharp Aquos TV. I called and spoke with Sharp service dept. and they walked me thru the process of resetting the TV to it's original "default" values. It worked great once I completed the steps while on the phone with them.

suggest you do the same thing with JVC.

JVC LT42E488 Color Issue

If you have a flat screen LCD TV then there is NO color tube. Somebody is blowing smoke. Don't deal with him. The main board in conjunction with the screen controller board are the places to look.

Talk to JVC as I have suggested and this is likely a known problem: loss of any color, picture upside down etc requires a upgrade to correct and I have seen about twenty sets with their name like this with this kind of problem.

Picture not as good as i expected

First, did the satellite company install an HD receiver? Second, are you using either component or HDMI cables from receiver to TV?  Still there are two factors that would produce your problem.  1. Color calibration 2. Signal strength
Proper color calibration is what makes SD actually GOOD on HDTVs. Low signal strength will create  a slow data situation. Slow data will not provide enough information per second for the TV to display a complete, error free picture so your TV has to interpolate or "guess" what colors should go in the pixels that it didn't get the data for.

JVC HDTV Pictrure Distortion

Your TV needs to be calibrated. Rear projection TVs are very sensitive to movement. They have 3 color canons that need to be precisely aligned so that the colors overlay each other. They are like three projectors all aimed at the same screen.

If you were to enter the User Menu on the TV, you should find an alignment/calibration choice that will re-align the colors using some on-screen help.

If you are not able to resolve the situation on your own, a certified ISF Calibrationist should be called.

And, since you've bought this TV used, it should be cleaned by a professional (the canons, lenses, etc.)
