Your tv does not need an internal cleaning for brightness, I suspect that your tube has aged and either needs an adjustment or replacement.

Screen went black after a strange snapping sound. The green light flashes 15 times when turning TV back on.

This sounds like transformer failure, time for a repair shop....

Not a TV Technician, use the following information at your own risk. Two things you can do first: using the keys on the front of your set press and hold the menu button when while holding it down it goes from menu to channel listing press the adjust (<->) and channel up buttons simultaneously to get to the factory set up screen once there use the select button to scroll to next set up screens locate the contrast it should range from 1-63 find the one you like. Second: for the horizontal lines not to say that this is the solution there are two adjustment apparatuses inside the TV chassis if your familiar with taking the set apart and not getting shocked and hurt

two dials on the fly back transformer ones for focus the other brightness you can try these fixes but I have to say again that you use at your own risk. I do hope though that the information is useful

Blurred picture and it's also dark rear projection zenith Z52Z95D

I'd get the lamp replaced for sure. If it has a ballast - change that at the same time. However, a Zenith repair center should be able to tell you whether it's worth doing or not.

Zenith Projection Tv Set Model number ZB4685T no Visual

Since this is a CRT based set, there could be a number of problems. What exactly do you mean when you say that the picture fades? Do you loose contrast and the picture gets lighter? or does the picture darken toward black?

Parts are still available, so this can be fixed. If youfeel you want to attempt this yourself, please supply additional info and we'll walk down the diagnosis path.

Zenith SL2773W problem

The dark rectangle appears because you have the closed captions on and set to TEXT. Closed captions set to CC1 puts the words on the screen and TEXT puts a black box on the screen. Go into the menu, navigate to the page with closed captions and set your captions to OFF.

Zenith rear projection TV

it's unual for all 3 crt's to go bad at same time, so have you tried turning up screen(G2) control? If so also there is a cap in the high voltage line that when replaced may lighten up set. Don't have model so I can't go further.
