Where is convergence located in hd61w66

bigraedog,

Your convergence circuit has problems. Due to the size of the screen there has to be a circuit which will correct the errors of the scanning of the beam. All tubes are a little different and the yokes which move the beam are also different as well as the fact that over time the parameters will change due to heating of the coil. Periodically the convergence (sometimes called majic focus) should be set to get the best quality picture. If your unit has lost the convergence menu you have an ITC222 chassis. This is a common problem with these units and I have a tip which will walk you through the troubleshooting process, where to get parts and how to do the repair. The tip is at http://www.fixya.com/support/r5119668-fix_convergence_problems_rca_chassis .

Thanks for using FixYa and for the great rating.

Ur tv have a problems known as a convergence problems,it dead.Tv have colors lines R,G,B mis alingnmets,have colors shadows pictures or 3D pictures look alike?The tv convergence board have dead 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all of it resistors too.These parts on the tv convergence board,must be replaced to solved the tv convergence pictures problems.U have some machanicals skills?Can u take things aparts and putting it back together again?Yes,than try website like Tvrepairworld.com to buy a whole refurbish convergence board for the replacement.The DLP Tvs Akai/Samsung models used the same convergence board.Or the shop,will cost u like $300-350 for parts and labors.

This sounds like a convergenvce broblem. first question is in the customer menu under setup do you have the convergence option ... if not you might have the fl231 fuse problem common with this model .... go to and read the fl231 fuse problem http://www.fixya.com/support/r1062030-fl231_problem_convergence_not_in if this is not your problem you might have to replace convergence curcits

Hi,
It is common problem with rear projection tv and 3D type picture problem occurs due to failure of convergence output ICs, replacement of convergence output ICs will fix the issue and tv will again show correct converge picture as before.
Let me know tv model number written on back of tv if you want to fix tv by yourself as it needs soldering parts in circuit board expertise and if you feel uncomfortable working in tv circuit boards than local tv repairman will do this job for you.
Thanks.

there are 3 fuses in a row next to the flyback
transformer.solder all the pins on the flyback
and replace the middle fuse.check the other 2
fuses.this is very common with RCA.
