Two model numbers indicated here, if WS-65315 WHICH of the 3 hidden menus do you want?

You must press a single button to switch between sources - depending on the type of your remote it will be labeled TV/AV, INPUT or an arrow pointing inside a square.
You can also do it thru the Menu - Inputs section.

I know this is an old thread, but I would like to post this information in the hope that someone will find it useful.
I just finished fixing this problem on my 1994 VS-6061... the problem is the PIP (Picture In Picture) board located on the Power Signal board. The PIP board contains the numbers 530B552. I bypassed the PIP board by following the directions I found at the following link:
http://forum.doityourself.com/entertainment-center-tvs-stereos-vcrs-dvds/130383-mitsubishi-cs-35301-rolling-picture-problem.html
"Plug in a 4.7ufd @ 35v filter cap (+)at pin 5,(-)at pin 11. Plug in a .01ufd(any voltage) between pin 7 and 9. Just plug the caps into the socket, where the PIP board was mounted (they don't need to be soldered). Just don't let the leads from the two capacitors touch, as they cross each other. The 0.01 cap is non-polarity, so either way it plugged is fine. Basically you will bypass y-signal through 4.7u, in pin 5, out pin 11, and bypass c-signal in pin 7, out pin 9 of the PIP socket.”

The bypass requires 2 capacitors: One 4.7ufd @ 35v and one Non-Polar 0.01ufd @ any voltage.
Remove the PIP board, then plug the two capacitors into the socket where the PIP board was mounted: plug the 4.7ufd capacitor with (+)at pin 5,(-)at pin 11 and plug in the non-polar .01ufd capacitor between pins 7 and pin 9.
If there is a ground wire (possibly brown) soldered to one of the tin cases on the PIP board, then you should connect this ground wire to the PIP socket either at pin 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 which are grounds of the socket.
This PIP board was used in many Mitsubishi televisions and they were plagued with problems...This is why many of these older Mitsubishi televisions had similar problems…
Good luck

If you see absolutely nothing on the screen then you may have a problem with the Lamp unit. If you can see around the back of the TV look to see if there is a vented opening with a noise of a fan and a rather bright light. If you see there is no light then try a reset (hold power button for at least 10 seconds). Turn the TV back on and the green LED should flash for a bit. If you still have no picture or video of any type (completely black screen) and have sound only you probably have a bad lamp. These lamps are around $125 or so and can be bought on Amazon or other sites that sell these parts. It's fairly simple to replace but make sure that the tv is unplugged and securely re-install the access door. Hope this helped.

press the cc key on the remote control once at a time until the close caption feature displays off. you will see the display will take you through cc1,cc2,text1,txt2 etc. just keep hitting the key until it says cc is off. you should get the block out after this and view your tv normally.

More than likely the problem with your TV is cause 2 but check the other also.

Cause 1.
1. SHORT DETECTS SHUTDOWN (PIN 13 OF IC700) CHECK FOR OPEN L902 PART # 351P155010 OFF Q904 C (15 V SUPPLY) ON THE MAIN PCB.

2. SHORT DETECT SHUTDOWN (PIN 13 OF IC700) CHECK FOR SHORTED D913 PART # 264P722010 AND OPEN Z901 PART # 283P039020 (Z905 AND Z900 MAY ALSO BE OPEN BECAUSE OF THIS).

3. X-RAY SHUTDOWN (PIN 55 OF IC700) CHECK FOR A LEAKY D5A09 PART # 264P244030 OFF PIN 6 OF IC5A01.

4. X-RAY SHUTDOWN (PIN 55 OF IC700) CHECK FOR LEAKY D5A21, PART # 264P045040, IN THE BEAM PROTECTION CIRCUIT ON THE MAIN PCB.

5. CHECK FOR LEAKY Q5A03 AND/OR Q5A04 BOTH PART # 260P559050, IN THE HIGH VOLTAGE DETECT CIRCUIT, ON THE MAIN PCB.


Cause 2.
1. CHECK C924 (1000 UFD 36V) AND C925 (100 UFD 50 V) IN THE -24 VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT ON THE MAIN PCB.

2. CHECK FOR LEAKY D913 PART # 264P722010, OFF OF PIN 12 OF T900 (15-VOLT LINE) ON THE MAIN PCB.

3. CHECK THE CONVERGENCE OUTPUTS, IC8W00, IC8W01 AND/OR IC8W02. PART # 267P007020 LOCATED ON THE CONVERGENCE PCB. THIS THE CENTER BOARD WITH THE LARGE SILVER HEAT SINK.


Good Luck, Big Irish.

Check the video cables make certain that they are in good enough, or shortening out.

check for swollen capacitors- bad capacitors will cause the screen to roll. If the top of a capacitor even looks SLIGHTLY puffed up, replace it!

repair consists of 50 80 in parts ic s resistors  you will need service lit and you will needto be very handy. plus soldering skill good meter. hand tools etc. other wise your right prob not worth cost of repair.

you can get the actual remote for that model at www.replacementremotes.com just enter the model number. You may need the service manual to actually erase that code.

We called a tv repair guy. It wasnt anything we could have fixed easily. Thank though.

1. NO VIDEO, BUT HAS VIDEO WITH PIP ON. CHECK C763 (1UF 50V) ON THE BASE OF Q715, LOCATED ON THE UCOM-PCB. 2. NO MAIN VIDEO, THERE IS VIDEO IN PIP ON EXT1 AND EXT2:-CHECK FOR 1VPP OF LUMINANCE ON PIN 1 OF IC7000, IF MISSING OR LOW CHECK THE VALUE OF C7001 (4.7UF 35V), LOCATED ON THE PIP-PCB. THIS CAP MAY LEAK ELECTROLYTE ONTO THE BOARD AND OPENED A FEED THROUGH IN THE PATH BETWEEN C7001 POSITIVE LEAD AND THE EMITTER OF Q7003 OR CAUSE INTERMITTENT COLOR. PART # 181P504090. (CHECK ALL 'SMD' ELECTROLYTICS AND TRACES ON PIP) 3. NO MAIN OR PIP VIDEO, CHECK C7014, 47 UFD 16V ON THE PIP PCB. PART # 181P502060 4. CHECK FOR 7.2V DC ON THE BASE OF Q7003, IF LOW OR MISSING.

1. VERT JITTER/HORZ UNSTABLE-CHECK 'GE' CONNECTOR PIN 5 FOR 1VPP Y SIGNAL INTO PIP PCB THEN CHECK 'GE' CONNECTOR PIN 11 FOR 1VPP Y SIGNAL FROM PIP PCB. IF SIGNAL AT PIN 5 IS GOOD AND PIN 11 IS CLIPPED OR REDUCED. CHECK ALL ELECTROLYTICS (I.E.C7001, C7014, C7026, C7036) AND ALL CONNECTING TRACES TO THESE CAPS FOR CONTINUITY 2. HORIZONTAL TEARING, VERTICAL JITTER. SIGNAL RELATED CONDITION. APPLY FOLLOWING CIRCUIT CHANGES ON PCB-SIGNAL: A. REPLACE R2K8 WITH A 1K RESISTOR (BASE OF Q2B2). B. REPLACE R2K3 WITH A 47 OHM RESISTOR (IC201 PIN 50). C. ADD A 100PF CAPACITOR FROM BASE OF Q2B2 TO JUNCTION OF R2L0 AND R2K6 (GROUND).

The lamp is not enabled possibly due to the colour wheel motor not turning. Any broken glass jamming it? Or the lamp ballast has failed due to an old/worn lamp.

Most likely you need to replace the projection bulb. You can find them online. DLP sets are famous - or infamous - for burning out the bulbs/lamps.

Your Mitsubishi VCR HS-U580 looks to have a problem with the information rollers and drum. Here are some things to check: Look for something blocking the VCR or cassette compartment that would possibly be stopping the guide rollers. Check the belt that drives the VCR mechanism. If it is loose or broken, you may also need to substitute it. Clean the video heads using a head-cleaning cassette to make certain they're not dirty. See if the drum motor is working. If it is not spinning, there may be an issue with the motor. If the trouble persists, it's an exact idea to get assistance from a professional technician or contact Mitsubishi's purchaser support for advice. Be cautious when dealing with electronic devices, and if you are not certain what to do, it's great to get assistance from an expert.
