If you feel up to it, there is probably a potmeter inside that you could try to adjust. I tried this on a TV a long time ago. You should know, though, that there are thousands of volts in some capacitors in there (so I've been told) that might shock you if you're not careful. *Even if the TV has been unplugged!* The capacitors store power and are not automatically discharged when the TV is unplugged. It's the parts on the cathode ray tube that are (most) dangerous, so don't poke around with your fingers or a metal object. I would probably leave this one to a qualified technecian, though. If you do open it and fix it, make sure to get all the dust in there out while you're at it to prevent any fires later. Your TV will have collected a lot of dust.

Vs-45607 was a hand me down and did not come with a remote. the picture has very fast rolling vertical lines........Help!
Typically you can open the back case and you will see two screws, one for vertical scroll and one for horizontal scroll. with a rubber head flat head you can adjust this. Please be advised this is very dangerous and has high voltage. Please get a tech to look at this, he must be familiar with this TV.

These models have been known to have faulty capacitors on the PIP module as a result thy loose vertical synvh and the picure will roll. The PIP module is no longer available. But if you would like I can post a way for you to bypass the module and if the modle is at fault your tv will work fine, but you wont have PIP anylonger

Can you tell me how to stop my TV from Scrolling....
You would have to make some checks:1. CHECK C2P08 100 UFD 16 V OFF PIN 3 OF IC2P03 (3.2 VOLT REGULATOR) ON THE SIGNAL PCB. You can try and change that cap first. Hope this helps

Have same problem on 42in. Problem appears to be a short on one of the boards. If hold the cable input connection and give it a jiggle, it will usually pop in.

Vertical rolling
Does you set have PIP (picture in picture)? If it does then the PIP module has a bunch of capacitors that have gone bad (dried out and leaked) causing you to loose vertical sync. Vertical synchronization is what locks your picture keeping it from rolling. Even if you don't have PIP then still you have a vertical sync problem. The set would have to be checked by a tech to find exactly what's happening. Stargazer

Mitsubishi VS-1281 error 3 no powerup I've got problems with this projector since a powerfailure happened when I was wachting a movie. When I tried to start the PJ after the failure it did start up, but shut down after a few seconds. It gave error code 3. The description out of the install manual: P.Conv. Power source abnormality in Conv-focus system, DEFL. system. Principal defective board: Power 2. None of the mentioned boards have obvious problems (leaky caps, broken fuses, etc.), but i cant check any further without service manual, or specific tips. As with Barco, i guess that Mitsubishi also made a (more popular) rearprojection television (RPTV), based on more or less the same hardware as this unit. Service manuals for these RPTV's are much more commonm so i hope to fix it that way. Thanks in advance.
