20 Most Recent Mitsubishi WS-65611 65" Rear Projection Television - Page 2 Questions & Answers

This model has three picture tubes and they will not cause loss of color.

It does not have a bulb.

Are you connected via the cable fitting on the set or the A/V jacks on the back of the set?

The more you tell me the better I can help.

When this set is first plugged in the LED will flash for 70 to 90 seconds and then stop. During this time the unit will not operate. This is the amount of time it takes for the Digital Module to boot up. If the blinking LED never stops the Digital module is not booting up and must be repaired. I have done quite a few of these repairs and the average repair cost has been between $250 and $300.

The only option you have is to connect it via Component cables (Red, Blue, Green) and analog audio cables (Red, White) to get an Analog HD 1080i at best picture and analog stereo sound. I have to tell you though, your BD player is better than your TV and by using it on this TV you are missing out on the unit's full potential of features. I would highly recommend you consider upgrading and if your're looking to save a few bucks and get an amazing picture, consider upgrading to a Mitsubishi DLP. They are as low as $799 for 60".

This is a very common failure on these projection sets and a fairly simple DIY fix. All projection sets including Samsung, RCA, Sony, Philip Magnavox, Panasonic, Pioneer, Akai, GE, JVC, Toshiba, and others at some point will have the same problem.

Common Symptoms include....

• 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.
• TV shuts off after powering on. Power light will blink. TV may also make a chirping noise.

Here are some images of convergence problems.

have you tried adjusting the convergence on the tv

once they get older or get moved you need to do this

go through on screen menus and look for adjusting convergence menu and follow on screen instructions

good luck!

Did you run the error code operational check? In not unplug the set and plug it back in. Press and hold the DEVICE and MENU buttons for 5 seconds and release. The LED should flash a certain number of times a short pause and another series of blinks. Count the number of blinks before and after the pause, and let me know.

YES, you either have a fuse that went out or the convergence IC went out... Sometimes it just comes unsoldered and causes the same effect. You need to locate this "IC" and tap on it with something non metallic. Like a ruler or a stick. While the tv is running and crosshatch is up on screen. If the lines get close as you tap on the IC or bang on the tv. then fuse is good and the tv might just need to be resoldered on that CONVERGENCE IC. Let me know how this works for you and if you have any questions give me a call @ 502-773-7969 and i can help u out further.

Bulb is probably dead, you can find a bulb online and put it into the TV. Refer to page 79 of your owner's manual to see how to disassemble the TV(available online here).

Hello it looks like you a problem with your main board, maybe a horizanal deflection. you can get the problem by run troubleshoot codes, first hold the buttons mune and input or device until starts blinking account the blinks, it will blink few times and the it will pause for a second again will blink. get blinking number like, 2 the 2, or 2 then3. that means 22 or 23. 22 means convergance problems. feel free to call me if you need more help with your tv. 602-810-7149 i live in mesa az

replace bulb, clean cooling fans of dust. If not some power supplies have bad capacitor issues that may need to be replaced.

Sorry this is a tv right? What exactly do you mean by "keyboard"? Please clarify this so that I can help you solve your problem.

Sai.

This model only has one HD input---it has two sets of component inputs on the back and one is marked 480/1080----in the menu it will be the DTV input.

Check to make sure you are not connected to the other component input.

Let me know what happens and let me know exactly where you are connected and what are using for signal.

If this told you something you did not know rate this solution as very helpful as I do this here for free.

Check On the Menu Setup for On/Off Remote utility Maybe your Remote signal is off on the TV Set...

Check the volume up button. It is either just stuck or defective, causing a constant stream of data to be sent to the microprocessor. You remote isn't recognized because the data line is continuously active.

Projection TV sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the video to look normal. When its out of alignment the video will look 3D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the TV menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired.

Here are some photos of convergence problems.






Here is a quick test....

Using your original remote go-to the settings menu 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. And you should be able to get the grid straight.

If you can't move them in all directions or cant move them far enough 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 fix

CONVERGENCE SOLUTION

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