Same situation, the tv picture is bowed on all edges

Have you tried changing the VIEW Mode on your remote from ZOOM to Normal. Might Help.

Sounds like a problem in the vertical sweep circuit. Check voltages to your convergence ICs. If they are  not to spec then look for bad fuses and capacitors on the power board. These will throw off the DC voltage to the convergence chips causing the bow effect. I've had a single bad pico fuse ($1) cause this symptom. 

change the convergence chips or lack of voltage in the chips get advice from tech never your home

I have the same situation. Called my repairman, who knew exactly that it needed a "570 kit" . It will be repaired this week. Cost $360

replace fuse looks like cap next to flyback transfomer FL231 it will be the one in the middle.there are 3 of them next to FBT.

Convergence problems. FIrst try going into customer setup and seeing if convergence options are there and if adjustments can be made. unfortunately when the picture is bowed like that it idicates a complete loss of convergence which idicates one of three boards have gone bad.

Sounds like the blue convergence circuit still not working.

Assuming both IC's are good, look for open soldered-in pico fuse.

Once bowing problem is solved,then convergence should adjust ok.     

Hello, Check and replace IC1606 (P/N: 875292571) and IC1608 (P/N: 875982987). Best regards, Arpi http://www.partstore.com/sl/2/418644-ic-cxp86448635q-875292571.html

most like tes thats all your going to have to replace + the silicon as if you dont thet wil not last as long as they should. Also you may have blow fuseable resistors next to the ICs make sure you check them as well.

This mis probably a cold solder connection in the horizontal circuitry called the pincussion. Theres a couple of coils and resistors that overheat from time to time and the solder connections get loose. Not really for a handiman has this tv has hi vboltage inside even when turned off. Shouldnt cost an arm ans a leg to fix if the repair shop knows what they Are doing. Good Luck
