If your convergence setting will not adjust the picture you need to replace the Convergence amps. A repair shop will do this for $200-$300 depending on your area.

probably need to replace the convergence ICs inside the TV.

The Ic is about 2" x 3" and mounted on large aluminum heatsink. Usually 2 or 3 (depends on model)

i had someone look at my tv that fixes them and what i had to do was replace the chips that were in their for about $120 for everything labor and all. because if the perfect focus wont work like mine then its probably the chips.

I found out why the crosshairs won't move. The replacement Sanyo convergence IC's was bad STK392-150. I had another spare generic STK392-150, and it worked for half of the beams. Awaiting another STK392-150 to arrive.

change your convergence cartridges and check your resistor specially the fusible ones and all low values.. a small change in value can prevent any automatic convergence circuits from operating

how yo get into the service mod to do the convergence alignment? thanks

Comment by tomkitty, posted on Feb 13, 2008

After the magic focus button is reset, the number 4 shows up. The colors on the tv are a blue stripe across the top followed by a yellow stripe, lettering is out of focus showing double images, lots of blue and yellow smeared it appears. Please help get my tv realigned.This is a Hitcahi 53 inch projection tv.

Comment by tomkitty, posted on Feb 13, 2008

I have a yellow stripe at the top going across the tv and the a bright blue stripe under it. The words on the tv also have a double image and use these blue and yellow colors. the stripes are not solid stripes, but curves and also miss small sections from being a complete stripe. Please help me figure out how to fix this, my warranty just ran out, of course. Thanks

the colors wouldn't align on the screen and even doing the perfect focus it didn't help so i had the chips replaced in it for 120$ at my house and now the tv works just fine. which is great for me because somebody just gave it to me because they couldn't figure out what was wrong with it, so i got the tv for about 120$.

Also replaced STK392 150's and the digital convergence won't move according to remote control. When I press the directional keys on the remote the screen just flashes instead of moving the color lines.
