I just bought a used Sony KDL-52S5100. I installed it 2 days ago. Has worked fine for 2 days and was fine this morning but turned it on this evening and has the solarized picture. I went to the menu and the menu is not solarized. I went to the guide (on Dish Network) and it also looks fine and is not solarized. Please Help.

In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.
Before going further; try a hard reset first. If it does not help you, replace the main digital board. There are two methods to reset TVs. The first is simple to do; a Hard Reset. The other is somewhat skilled; is a Factory Reset (System Reset). To make it a hard reset, just unplug the TV from AC mains wall socket, and re-plug it back after 15 minutes or so. If you do this by overnight is better. This procedure will make it a hard reset. If you want to make it a system reset [Factory Reset]; you have to enter its service mode option, and select the factory reset option. If you wish to get some details; visit the site linked here.
I have a Sony model KDL-32BXR6 that the TV Guide first
showed no listings this past weekend.
Last night when I entered the Guide the screen displaying the
Setup/Display Setup Progress came up stating "In Progress". Same thing this morning. Something must have changes with the input signal
if this occurred with two different sets.
