Hitachi 53uwx10BA in. Rear Projection




By ski350 on Sep 24, 2008

" "
All at once my picture developed into 3 separate pictures, each was a different color. Red, Blue and yellow.I turned the tv off for a minute and back on. Had a decent picture, but with yellow and blue shadows on the edge of any letters and pictures of objects.This tv is about 10 years old. Not HD, just HD ready. Is it worth fixing?

I love your model, out of all the sets i work on i would say to keep it as long as you can. You have a simple convergence problem and its not to bad of a repair even at the DIY level. The new sets on the market these days brake about every 10months so to keep your 8 year old tv would be a smart choice. If you can solder and use a meter we can fix your set for under $100. If you call a repairman to fix it its going to run you $300-$500 depending on your area. But even at that its less than 1/4 the price of a quality new set. Remember when you buy a new set these days you dont only have to buy the tv you have to buy a stand to put it on or a wall mount (then if you mount it on the wall either you need to know how to do it or you will need to pay someone to do it) then i never would buy a new set without an extended warranty, then you have cableing to buy (most likely your going to hook it up hdmi) and so on. To put a brand new 52" tv in your house that i would reccomend after its all said and done your going to be looking anywhere from $2500-$3500. Hope this is the info you were looking for. any more questions, or if you want to try the repair yourself just ask!!
