Hi Ladywin, I have question regarding your fix on convergence problem pasted below: Is the reason to replace STK***-110 to STK***-120 or 150s, is because theyare more durable? "Start out with replacing both of your STK ICs 392-110s use 120s or the 150s Mats Electronics has them 1-800-628-1118 They are big black ICs and will have the part number on them STK392-110."

Here are some of the most common symptoms and example photos of a convergence problem.

This is a very common failure on Projection TV sets.

• Screen looks 3D
• Colors don't line up
• One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
• Screen is bowed or warped.

Here are some photos of convergence problems.





Here is a quick test....

Using your original remote go-to the tv settings then goto the convergence section.

Try to adjust the red and then the blue convergence.

You should be able to move RED and BLUE in all directions - up, down, left, and right.

If you can't move them in all directions your convergence chips are bad and should be replaced. This is a common problem.

Note: If you TV has as flash focus or magic focus button only try pressing the button. If it fails to fix the convergence your need to fix it. See below for a solution

SOLUTION

You will need to replace the convergence chips and possibly some convergence resistors and pico fuses.

This is a a fairly easy DIY job if you know what you are doing or you can call in a pro.

If you want to do the repair yourself check the site www.TvRepairKits.com

Their kits include a step by step photo instruction guide, original OEM Sanyo STK chips, convergence resistors, pico fuses, thermal paste, email/phone support, etc.
