Problem in Screen display

For the last couple of days, I have been observing different coloured circular patches on different positions of the screen of my SONY make TV. Two of them are observed as violet, one as green & the other as red while the background is white. Kindly provide information about probable causes for such problems & the remedy. With regards, J Roy

Hi, J ! You didn't say how old you set is, but to me it sounds like you may have a warped shadow mask in you picture tube. A shadow mask could be compared to a piece of screen wire. It's function is to make the electron "beams" from the three electron guns strike the proper phosphor dot to produce the proper color- red-green-or blue. If this is the case the picture tube would requie replacement. Stargazer

Picture or screen displays multicolours : The screen looks bluish with mixed patches of light yellow,purple and grey colours; as though the lens or bulb were wet. Still getting alerts to clean air filter...

Dont use a damp cloth. Use an air hose or can air if possible.
The color differences may be your color wheel and not your
air filter. You may have to reset the projector to clear the alerts, just hold both volume buttons for 5 seconds. I've found its usually 30 seconds
Hope it helps, good luck

Coloured lines all over screen

The colored line you saw was the actual screen pressing against the back of the psp......Example would be if you put your thumb and pressed on a laptop's screen. It doesnt work now because the screen is now cracked and you can either order a replacment screen on amazon for about 50 bucks or buy a new system

Check the proximity of magnetic fields. Large Speakers near the TV for example will cause colour distortion.
