Cant get blue or red crosshair to white in color alignment mode,wat do I do to fix the problem ? Help mii.....

Hi Bill.

I don't see a specific model for your TV, but have owned a rear projector system before. There is usually a sub-menu where you can do fine alignment of the Red, Green, and Blue projectors to get rid of the pink fringe. There is generally a white crosshair at center screen where you can fine align the three colors to get rid of the fringing, and sometimes an advanced menu where there are crosses all over the screen that you can individually select and fine tune, (tweaking the different optical distortions of the individual projectors to overlap).

If the fringe is a big swath instead of a fine edge, or if a color is totally gone, then you may be talking power amp issues. For fine fringes, the adjustments usually work fine.

Hoping that helps!

The tv have a problems known as a convergence problems,it dead.Tv have colors lines R,G,B mis alignments,have colors shadow pictures or 3D pictures look alike?The tv convergence board is dead.The tv convergence board must have replace the 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all of it resistors too.To fixed the tv convergence board to solved the tv convergence picture problems.The shop,will cost u like $300-350 for parts and labors.

Enter Service mode.. Press Menu -0-1-5-7 in quick succession . From there select the convergence option. You should see 3 crosshairs -Red, Blue and Green. Green is fixed but Red and blue can be moved. Align both of them with green and see if the issue resolves. If not Try moving them around and see if the problem is cleared. If not you may have the inevitable convegence IC problem and the IC needs to be replaced. Let me know if that is the case and I will give you the procedure.

The most likely cause is shorted convergence chips and possibly a few pico fuses.

These sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the picture to look normal. This is called convergence.

When its out of alignment the video will look 3-D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired. Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony,Samsung,JVC,Philip Magnavox,Panasonic,Akai,Pioneer Hitachi,Mitsubishi,Zenith and others.
You can get a convergenece repair kit with instructions from the links below.

Here are some of the most common problems with these sets...

Problem #1) Convergence

Yours may have one or more of the following symptoms...

*Screen Looks 3-D
*Colors wont align
*Screen may look distorted or warped
*No Audio/Video - TV Shuts down - May also make a constant chirping sound

Problem #2
Another common problem is dull or washed out video.

Your set may have one or more of the following symptoms....

*Dull looking picture
*White looking picture
*Halos around objects
*Red/Orange looking picture

This sounds like the alignment of the red beam is off. There is usually a configuration tool in the menu that shows a white cross in the center of your TV against a black backgound (if it's aligned properly). It's a combination of the red, blue and green light bars hitting the screen. You should be able to adjust the positions of these crosshairs for each of the colors and "fine tune" your picture. Some of the higher end TV's even do a grid with over 100 crosshairs to fine tune every few inches or so. Once you get the red beam in line with the others and save the settings you should be good to go!

Projection TV sets have several common problems listed below.

Problem #1) Convergence

To adjust manual convergence on your projection TV, follow theses steps:

1. Turn your TV on.
2. Let it warm up for 30 minutes.
3. Press the Menu button on your remote. The Main menu appears.
4. Use your remote to select Function, and then press the joystick.
5. Select Convergence, and then press the joystick. The Manual Convergence screen appears.
6. Select Red, and then press the joystick. A series of crosshairs appears on the screen.
7. Select one of the outside crosshairs by moving the joystick up/down/right/left or by pressing the 2 (up), 4 (left), 6 (right), or 8 (down) buttons on your remote. The method you use depends on the model of remote you have. Note: You must do the outside crosshairs first.
   

1. In the crosshair you selected, if you can see a horizontal red line, use the CH up or CH down buttons to move the line so that it is superimposed on the horizontal center line of the crosshair. Note: Make the single horizontal line as white as possible.
   

1. In the crosshair you selected, if you can see a vertical red line, use the Vol + or Vol - buttons to move the line so that it is superimposed on the vertical center line of the crosshair. Note: Make the single vertical line as white as possible.
   

1. Repeat for all outside crosshairs, and then for the inside crosshair.
2. Return to the Manual Convergence Screen, and select Blue, and then press the joystick.
3. Repeat Steps 7 through 10 for Blue.
4. Press the Menu button on your remote to exit.

Important: The directions above work for most Samsung Rear Projection TVs. Yours may be different. For exact directions to perform manual convergence, see your user's manual. If you don't have your user's manual on hand, click HERE to view your manual on line.
If you cannot get your Projection TV to converge, it may need to be serviced. To arrange a service appointment, call Samsung Customer Care at 1-800-Samsung (1-800-726-7864). Have your TV's model number and serial number on hand when you call.

1. MAY ALSO HAVE INTERMITTENT SHUTDOWN. CHECK FOR PROPER SEATING OF CONNECTIONS TO AND FROM THE HIGH VOLTAGE BLOCK
