Screen slowly turns blue... (by 2 users)

posted by mcanirlin on Jul 26, 2008

Like when a little kid holds thier breath... starts out great when you turn it on and in about 10 minutes the green gun is dark and the screen is all blye. How do I tell if it's the gun or the cicuit behind it? Can I switch the red and green guns just to test it out?

Thanks,

I'm holding my breath now......

This is truly amazing. I got this TV from Craig's list for free because the screen turned blue. Noticed that the color was a little over driver...retrace lines. Found the post on FixYa that told how to get rid of the lines and guess what? Pictures not blue anymore. Seems that if the color is over driven too much, the entire set tuns off. If it's overdriven a little too much it can shut down one of the guns. In my case it was the green gun. So, before you replace a gun, turn all those screws on the bottom row CCW and reset the set. I'll bet my set isn't the only one with this issue. THANK YOU FixYa. I'm going back to watch my TV now.....

I had blue lines showing up on my screen, then the other night my screen started to flutter the blue, bright to dim and back. So I followed this link to resolve the blue lines and the blue flutter was resolved as well. Hope this helps.
