Question about Apex Digital GB4308 43" Rear Projection EDTV-Ready Television

My projection tv picture is messed up

The picture on my APEX gb4308 43' projection tv looks like an osiliscope wave in the center... You can select the menu on the tv and you can tell that in the little bit of colored picture left that it is cycling though the menu but you can't even come close to seeing the text or picture of it... what could the problem be?

It's a power supply voltage problem or a cpu board. I just fixed one just like it.

I'm not to sure what exactly is wrong with your tv, but I do know that it is NOT the convergence board. I have the same problem with the same model and was told to replace the board. I waisted $85 bucks. The only other thing that I can figure is it must be the STK's inside the TV. If you fix yours please repost and let me know so i can fix mine.

CAREFULLY TAKE THE UNIT OUTSIDE, ATTACH A SACHEL CHARGE, SET TIMER FOR 10-MINS, THEN LEAVE & GO BUY A NEW ONE. IT WAS BUILT IN A CHINEESE FORCED LABOR CAMP & THEY ****.

PRAISE ALLAH !!

SOUND NO PICTURE ONLY RAINBOW

I just fixed this problem on my neighbor TV. I don't have a manual or schematic, and didn't pay any attention to the reference designators, so I will just have to describe it. The problem was a bad solder joint. Visible thermal fatigue. Looking at the main board, (didn't even need to slide the cassis out). There is a small, narrow, vertical board in the center, adjacent to the yoke connectors with a funny looking little transformer on the very top. Check the connections on that.

Convergence and picture problems

This TV probably uses two convergence IC Packs that will need to be replaced and be re-converged. There may also be a resistor or two that may need replacing as well. The projection tubes should last another 3 years or so.
