Blue screen and sound but no picture, except in PIP mode

We had a lightning storm and the power went out. Ever since the TV has had a blue screen, on getting two inputs ANT-A and B but i can hear the sound and when i goto menu or pip i can see the picture on the side. Help!

    I have the same problem.

    Blue screen and sound but no picture, except in PIP mode.

    I can see only ANT-A and ANT-B but no other inputs like VCR DVD CAM

    Am able to see Comcast Channels in the Setup panel but

    when come out of Menu mode there is only blue screen and TV turns itself off after few minutes.



    I saw other searches for the same situations where it is suggested that it is time to change TV as the Diag. and repair cost may run from $200 to $400 and may not be the end of it.

    So I am thinking on that line now.



    Thanks and best of luck,

The lighting possibly damage the tuner of the set,for now you can swap the pip with the main picture and change the channels with the vcr,you need the assitance of a service to diagnose how much damage is there but.Let us know what you find or if you nned more information.

After a lightening storm, my power surge strip got hit and damaged everything that was attached to it (i.e. the internet modem, blu-ray player, and Samsung TV). Our TV only has a blue screen. Help

Yep, power spikes kill. Power spikes kill all. Power spikes kill all forever. Replace all and get a new surge protector that costs at least $99. If you never need it it is called insurance. I am in FL the capitol of lightning. High priced surge protectors are cheeeeep when lightning is there.

Blue screen

Change TV viewing channel to 3 or 4. If this works your VCR's output channel got changed during storm. If this is the case, review previous answers to prblems with this VCR.
