Do not adjust any knobs as instucted in the previous thread if you TV have a convergence problem. Doing so will only make things worse. The blog does however show you how to fix other common problems with these sets.
Here are some of the most common symptoms and example photos of a convergence problem
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 them 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.hitachi 57uwx20b - 2c07611.png/>Solution #1
You need to replace the convergence chips and convergence resistors. Check the site www.TvRepairKits.com. They have put together a kits for most models. If you don't see a kit for your set send them a quick note and they will put one together for you. Their kits include a photo instruction guide, original OEM Sanyo STK chips, convergence resistors, pico fuses, etc.

My TV is same as old of yours, and has same problem as your description except red color is dropping down at top left in a curve.
Anyone has idea what is rough cost to fix this type problem? Is it worth while to fix it for a 6 year old TV?
Thank you
Ecollier2012 for your solution. Your problem description matchs my TV's problem. Just have a basic question: in order to fix the problem by the package from www.TvRepairKits.com, does it require trained technician to handle it, and/or need special tools?
