You have a problem MOST LIKLY!!, that happens to almost if, not to all projection tube sets ever made. Its the old bad convergence IC falure. It's not something you can do unless you have had exstensive electronic training and soldering skills. There are no user replaceable parts inside of this set so please call out a pro to repalce the convergence IC for yop! A repair such as this should cost around 250 to 400 bucks, depending where you live..Good Luck

Samsung tv model # HCP4363WX Ghosting

The convergence board that you replaced will not correct the issue that your describing as your model has the convergence amp circuits located on the Deflection board. You would need the deflection board which is available at the following link. It also has a picture of the board which is in your model its the large board on the right with the Flyback and both Convergence ICs on it.

You probably have a convergence issue. Since you did not include your make/model there's not a lot that we can do to help you. Try searching your model number with the word convergence in the search criteria.

Hi my TV is ghosting and I cannot change the blue on my convergence. It will allow me to go horizontal but not vertical to adjust. Is there a reset on the TV? Zenith IQB56W10 56 in.

The most likely cause is shorted convergence chips and possibly a few pico fuses.

These sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the picture to look normal. This is called convergence.

When its out of alignment the video will look 3-D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired. Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony,Samsung,JVC,Philip Magnavox,Panasonic,Akai,Pioneer

Hitachi,Mitsubishi,Zenith and others.
You can get a convergenece repair kit with instructions from the links below.

Here are some of the most common problems with these sets...

Problem #1) Convergence

Yours may have one or more of the following symptoms...

*Screen Looks 3-D
*Colors wont align
*Screen may look distorted or warped
*No Audio/Video - TV Shuts down - May also make a constant chirping sound

Problem #2
Another common problem is dull or washed out video.

Your set may have one or more of the following symptoms....

*Dull looking picture
*White looking picture
*Halos around objects
*Red/Orange looking picture

You can see some more examples and find a fix here

Zenith 50" R56W36

maybe on your remote press menu and find converence and use the keys to move the red first over the green then move the blue over the yellow ..by standing back and just using the remote....should end up with white lines. and dont hit that button again once set. a tech should do this quickly and charge you minium.

Mitsubishi VS 4552A

One of your convergence IC's has either cracked loose or burned out. The IC will have to be resoldered or replaced and then the convergence circuits realigned. If you do not have experience in repairing convergence circuits then have a qualified tech handle it for you. This is by far the most common failure in the projection sets and a good tech can have it fixed in about an hour and a half. I charge $150 for that but shops in your area will vary, so call around.
