Question about Sony VPL HS10 Multimedia Projector

Patch of purple "scribble" lines on corner of screen

A patch of what looks like purple crayon scribble lines, pixelated, has suddenly appeared on the bottom right corner of the screen, from my vpl hs10. (No crayons in the house! and it's not on the screen!) I've changed the filter, blown the dust out, cleaned the lens and cover, etc. with no change what-so-ever. It appears to be more internal. Any ideas?

I also have this problem but the "scribbles" are yellow. This projector has been a great performer and I'd really like to fix it if possible. Any insight would be much appreciated.

I took mine apart because I have a pink blob and scribble lines coming from it. It is definately the LCD inside that is part of what they call the prism block. The bad news is that you can't buy the LCD individually, and the block assembly is $1000. I contacted Sony about this and that is the solution they gave me. Hopefully, some of you have an extended warranty, because I don't see it being worth fixing for that cost. Try looking for a junked one I guess.

Sounds like the same problem that I just started having. Although my scribble lines are yellow. Personally I'm thinking that one of the three LCD panels has cracked internally and will need to be replaced.

Sony KDF-55W655 LCD TV with screen problem

Your optical block ( light engine) is bad. Heat generated by the lamp circuit with its poorly designed ventilation system, cause the LCD panels inside the light engine to fail. They are the size of a postage stamp. There are 3 LCDs, for red, blue, and green. The heat causes them to warp and de-laminate.

Sony has systematically downed played the scope of this issue. It appears however that virtually every LCD projector they make can develop damage in the light engine which is extremely expensive to fix.

I suggest contacting Sony and your state's attorney general's office of consumer complaints asking for action on this.

Nec plasmasync 4200w 3 vertical lines one yellow two purple

Sorry to tell you, it is not a scratch, but a bad cable connection from the driver IC's, connecting up the plasma screen to the drive board, or the drive IC for that section of the screen is defective. It is not a repair a user can do as there are no user replaceable parts inside this set. Your going to have to call NEC or an experienced Plasma repair shop.
