Hi Coyito,
We do have to love our helpful children. I know my grandchildren can always be so helpful. Smiling.
As for your problem, you can clean the screen by using a light soap and water solution ( like you would clean your windows ). If the water got onto the picture tubes on the inside of the set, you'll need to open the set up by removing the screws on the back panel as to expose the tubes and clean then in the same manner you clean the screen.
Make sure that before doing any of these procedures, make sure all the water that your daughter got into the set is dry ( this may take a few days) and while the set is drying don't use it and unplug the set. There may be some water on the main board causing a short and if you let the set dry up, it may work properly in a few days.
Good Luck and I hope this has helped.
Happy Presidents Day

Have a dark blotch on bottom right of screen. What is this? Transported in the rain and fear water got through carefully wrapped plastic. Help

It's possible the mirror has dome dust on it from jostling during the move. W dried water spot will do it too. The front screen will come off by removing the screws on the bezel. Be extremely careful cleaning the mirror.Any scratch by a cleaning cloth (never use paper) will permanently ruin it.

Fixing the picture in my Philips rear projection tv

As far as mostly red--turn color to zero and examine screen--if not gray or black and white it may need the screen controls adjusted.

Dark---with back cover off clean the three lens this model has--they are the light source for your picture and if dusty picture will be darker and somewhat dull looking.

Answer is based on brand/model number listed here.

Hello, I have a 40" Samsung LCD flatscreen. My television has a 2.5" diameter black spot on the far left side about 4" from the bottom of the screen, Also we have a dark transparent band across the bottom...

Sorry Sir but your LCD TV got wet... it can be splash with too much water, an animal urinate on the panel, etc....
this kind of black spot is caused when the LCD Panel Terminals got wet, this terminals are located at the lower side of the LCD Panel.

Mitsubishi TV Screen Water Stain Problem

You can use warm water and a soft cloth to try and clean it, but it will probably leave some evidence that liquid existed between the two layers at some point. Mitsubishi will deal screens directly to their customers if you ask nice enough and are willing to install yourself.

Screen seems to have scrape on-how expensive is new screen-only 4

Hi, dealer cost on the screen assy. is $290 plus s&h which is probably about $45, been quite awhile since I ordered one so not sure on s&h. You may be able to seperate the 2 screens and clean it up depending on what caused the mark, be advised you clean these with warm water and a LITTLE dish detergent . NEVER use windex or any other chemical type cleaner. rub gently straight down on front screen and in a circular motion on the inside screen. Before seperating the 2 screens mark both of them with a piece of tape at the top edge so they go back together exactly as you took them apart or the image will be all blurred, hope this helps, video-tek
