Picture problem My tv is five and a half years old with no problems until now. I see flickery horizonal lines (very slight)in my picture like a bad sat. signal. aliminated all external problems know it is my tv just not sure what internal part would be causing this. Is it possible that my tv needs to be cleaned?

My picture is bowed and warped towards the middle and the color is distorted. red, blue, and green streaks blink everywhere.

Have you taken another set an hooked up the cable or sat. to the other tv from this tv? Try that first thing. Next try the video input like with a dvd or vcr. No lines ?? Then sounds like the tuner could be going bad in this set. if you still have lines then its a problem in the video or horizontal section in the tv set. There are no user serviceable parts inside this set so its anot advised to gointo this set to try to fix it. You can get a serious shock or cause more problems with the set. I know you said it is about 5 or so years old. Its at the point of do you wanna invest in this set?? If you really like the way it works then a tuner shouldnt (if thats the problem) run more then 2 to 3 hundred bucks with the labor. Good Luck
