Problem for Sony KP-51HW40 51 in. Rear Projection Television
Picture is blurry and concaved
Best Solution
posted on Nov 09, 2009
This model kp-51HW40 uses two of the STK-392-560 CONVERGENCE IC CHIPS.
Usually just both chips need to be replaced and the set adjusted with the Sony remote---You can buy a pair of the chips on Ebay for less than 14 dollars plus shipping.
If you can do this repair you can save the set and a lot of money as most shops will charge 300 or more for this kind of repair.
I can give you general instructions if you think you can do it---there are places on the internet that sell
kits for this--usually very pricey and many of the included parts are not usually needed.
IF CONVERGENCE WILL NOT ADJUST: BOTH CHIPS NEED TO BE REPLACED.
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS OR NEED HELP, LET ME KNOW, I am here to help people.
