I have the same Tv. The auto convergence menu starts but doesnt finish and there is a big black in the middle of the screen when doing this, The colors on the plus are sideways a little when trying trying the red and blue convergence. When not in menu, there are three colors half way down and black above so half the picture is cut off. Is this the convergence board or ajustment of some kind?
I have an RCA R52WH74 tv. One of my kids hit it, now the picture is slightly bowed and the convergence is off. The manual says you can access the auto convergence in the setup tab under the main menu. When I select setup, auto convergence is not in the list. When I initially bought the set and plugged it in, it went through an initial setup. At the end it checked the convergence and it could be adjusted. I cannot get back to this initial setup mode again, even after leaving set unplugged overnight.
Convergence in this unit can be one of 3 possible boards. can you adjust any ...do the crosshairs move in customer setup convergence menu

convergence is a very common complant in this set. and can indicate one of 3 boards. the first question is always is the convergence option in setup menu. if it is this means you have a very common problem known as Fl231 fuse. I repair alot of these at the shop it is a simple fast inexpensive repair. if you know how to solder. faulty solder connection causes vibrations in this very small fuse and blows it you have to put some more solder on the flyback transformer joints when you replace this fuse

Hi: I have the same RCA (R52WH74) on a ITC222 chassis. Same convergence problem (RGB color separation on image - lost convergence option on Setup manual). Sucks because mine is 2 month out of warranty and RCA is not helpful. There is a site where I am getting excellent help and the also have the parts. http://servicemanuals.vstore.ca I would suggest that you go there and email Sonny for assistance. Good luck. Dominic
