Images on screen are only shades of blue

How can we fix this?
__________

Thank you for contacting me again. We are scared to try fixing it ourselves and if it is not too costly we will get it repaired. The problem occurred when the set was moved from the top floor to the basement. The picture is fairly clear but it is only in shades of blue with a tiny bit of red.

SOURCE: Red color convergence on Toshiba 57H81

Often convergence issues do not require the entire board to be replaced. You can resolve it by replacing the convergence ICs. The part in question is STK392-110. You will need two of them and they cost around 10$ each. But replacing them is a pretty complicated procedure and I would not suggest it to someone without prior experience. A service manual should get you started in the right direction if you are planning to do this yourself.

PS
: Disconnect from the power supply before you start the repair. Also read the legend, the hv circuits are denoted by a special symbol, so you will know what you shouldn't touch.

You may also need to replace the nearby resistors that may have popped the IC in the first place. Read the service manual for further details.

Good luck,
Sai.

SOURCE: Touch Focus Error

57h82 uses two STK-392-110 CONVERGENCE chips---you need to replace both and check all the resistors around them---an open resistor means one of the chips failed.

You can buy both chips on Ebay for less than 12 dollars plus shipping--they are black--about 2 inches wide, 1 1/2 inches tall with 18 pins each and the STK number will be printed on the face of them in white letters; You need a good soldering iron, solder, a desolder braid, liquid flux, heat sink grease, denatured alcohol, and the ability to get at them: they are mounted to two side by side metal heat sinks with fins.

Once you locate them and unsolder them and the heat sinks from the board--replace both after cleaning the bottom of the board with denatured alcohol--removes any flux and solder particles---apply liquid flux before you unsolder them--these sets use lead free solder and the flux makes it easy to unsolder them. Once they are removed check all the resistors around them---one open resistor and the repair will not fix your problem---install the new chips with heat sink grease on them and install each chip/heat sink back into the circuit board.

Apply more flux to all the pins on each chip and solder them in----good idea to clean with denatured alcohol again and take a close look to make sure all pins are soldered and not touching each other.

If you get this far and the set now seems to work you need to use the original remote for the set and adjust the convergence--either in the customer menu or access the tech menu and adjust it there.


A service manual will not do you much good for this type of repair--it is a hands on repair.

I do this here for free, so if this has helped you take a moment and give me a vote here.

SOURCE: Trying to manually fix color convergence on Toshiba 57H81

The convergence ICs and the six 1.8 ohm 1watt resistors need to be replaced. You can get the convergence repair kit for your model at www.tvrepairworld.com which has the Two Convergence ICs and the six resistors plus the CD with instructions on how to do the repair.

How to fix blue screen of (casio fx-991Es plus) calculator ?

If adjusting the contrast on your Casio fx-991ES Plus calculator's blue screen does not fix the issue, you may want to try resetting the calculator.
To do this, remove the battery cover and take out the battery. Wait a few minutes before putting the battery back in and turning the calculator on. This should reset the calculator and may fix the blue screen issue.
If the blue screen persists after resetting the calculator, it may indicate a hardware issue. In this case, you may need to contact Casio customer support or take the calculator to a professional for repair.

BLUE screen problem(monitor)

Hello,

It is the picture picture board on your monitor that is malfunctioning, since the power led or button is on, but blue shaded screen, it means the picture board of your monitor has developed fault.

The best thing for you to do now is to take the monitor to a local repairer within your vicinity or any service center to help with the replacement of the picture board because the fault is not something you can fix yourself, in order not to complicate issues.

Take care.

My NEC mt1075 projector is projecting a shade of blue all over. The entire screen is showing the correct image, but also with a shade of blue. I think something is wrong with the internal wiring. Is this a...

If you're using component video (red/green/blue rca cables) one of the colors may be disconnected, or the wires may be swapped into the wrong color input. If you are using a 15 pin VGA connector, one of the pins may not be getting good contact at the source or at the projector. Or if the VGA cable is split into 5-wire to make a long cable run, one of the five wires may be disconnected. Any of these problems will cause a global color shift while not affecting the color of the projector's on screen menus.

Hitachi projection 53" screen color off

Since this is a CRT based projection set, there is no "lamp" involved. Does the picture look like 3-D? If so, the problem is likely to be a convergence problem. There should be 1 or 2 convergence ICs marked STK392-110 inside attached to a heatsink. If you can solder, try resoldering the pins on those ICs. If that fails to resolve the problem, replace them.

Keep us posted.
