SOURCE: I have the common "color contouring" problem (red

The T-CON board get the power from the logic board switched transistor that supplies the voltage to the T-CON board. Check to see if the 12vdc feeding the T-CON board is clean voltage and not higher than 12vdc. The problem can also be the logic board which sends the signals to the T-CON board. Does cooling the T-CON board with electronic freeze spray make the problem goes away. Some of the work I have to do is to install a small DC fan to keep the T-CON board cool and some time using heat sinks.

SOURCE: My Vizio SV470XVT1A, when turned

Hi,

All plasma an lcd TVs have boards that control vertical and horizontal output to their respective areas. They are connected to the screen by ribbon cables. If one of these boards fails all together, has a failed chip, a bad connection, or a bad ground somewhere it will result in a black line in the area of that board. A bad ribbon cable connection on the bottom will result in a vertical black bar though the screen. Many times resetting the connection will fix it, if the ribbon cable has been nicked there could be a severed connection. They can sometimes be fixed, but it is a pain. An yes I have done it, and the bar is gone. The same will happen if the chip that outputs to that area opens. The connectors are the first place to look paying close attention to the cable, they are extremely delicate so great care must be taken if you decide to tinker with em, the usually have lift locks that release them, but it is very easy to wreck em.


Good luck.

Problem with the picture on my Vizio flat panel

I work as a Contractor for Vizio repairs, and I can tell you that the only solution is to replace the motherboard, or if under warranty REPLACE IT! I have had situations when I replace Motherboard and within 2-3 hours the TV is making either Green, Red, Or Blue pixels where dark areas are. If under warranty don't accept any thing but a full replacement.

I need to know the color code of my 2000 ford f150 radio

Look in the driver's side door jamb. There should me a sticker with the details of your truck.

At the bottom you'll see EXT PNT:

Mine says EXT PNT: SU

I believe SU is the the color code. You can probably order the paint from the dealer, or any good paint supplier can get you the equivalent.

Remember that paint can fade and change color over time, so if you're not a pro painter, blending the bright, new color will be very hard to do; you might as well just paint the entire panel or the whole truck if you're not already going to.

Red

Het Big AOT-

Sounds like the screen drivers for the blue and green projection CRTs sre possibly going south, or it could possibly be the CRTs(picture tubes) themselves going bad, although it would be highly unlikely for two tubes to go south at the same time. My money would be on the control circuits (screen drivers).

The easiest way to troubleshoot this problem would be to obtain a can of circuit cooler from an electronics supply house and determine the area on the motherboard where the screen drivers reside; then turn on the set and let it heat up until the problem occurs, and then carefully spray (one at a time) the components in the screen drivers area. When you hit the faulty component (probably a chip), the problem should clear --- until that part heats up to failure point again.

Determine the part #, obtain a replacement part, replace it and hopefuly the problem will be solved.

The last time I encountered a similar problem in the real world, it turned out to be a cracked circuit board, and all of the intermittently broken circuit lands had to be bridged by resoldering over the cracked area... a tedious and time consuming process.

If the set is still covered under warranty, let Sony fix it... any attempts by you could void the warranty!

Hope this helps and good luck! Keep us posted as to your results...

Red Bowed Lines / Red Hue

I tried the solution that was posted for this problem and it worked!
Just remove the Low front panel by removing the two bottom screws that are covered by two screw covers, then remove the second panel (black) by removing the 4 screws then you'll notice a module with 6 adjustment knobs, get a small screw driver, and with the t.v. on, being carefull , and with somebody accross the room looking at the screen begin with the lower left knob and turn left very slowly and ask the person across the room to let you know if the screen is better or not, after this I had to adjust the green as well so, I adjusted the next knob over to the left. Do this adjustment carefully and try to remenber the original position of the knobs in case you have to go back.f
Good Luck,
Californian.
