I have a similar convergence problem. The remote control convergence does not work anymore--it did in the past. I will try a hard reset but I expect that the problem will not be resolved. The set is 10 years old so I am not sure that a repair makes sense with HD arrival.

hi, sounds like a convergence issue. try this...

Look through your manual. Your manual will always give you the most specific directions for your particular model. Look for an "adjusting convergence" or "set manual convergence" section.

Enter the menu on your TV. Use the remote control and bring up the menu.

Choose "Convergence." This may be under "Picture Settings," "Function" or "Advanced Options."

Select a color. You will have red, green and blue to choose from. Do each one, starting with red.

Press "Enter." A crosshair pattern will appear on your screen.

Adjust vertically. If there is a horizontal red line visible, press the up or down arrow keys (or channel up or down) to adjust the convergence until the line is superimposed on the horizontal-center line of the white crosshair.

Adjust horizontally. If there is a vertical red line visible, press left or right (or volume up or down) to adjust horizontally. Do this until the line is superimposed on the vertical line of the white crosshair.

Save settings. It is important to save your settings when you are done, instead of simply exiting the menu.

Repeat these steps for all colors.

good luck!

I have a Philips 51PW9303 Rear Projection TV that had blue shadows around the sides of the screen and now has a green and red bowed line at bottom. Does I need a convergence board to solve this?

If the following doesn't work the tubes could be at the end of life:
Adjusting convergence:
Note: For best results, the Projection TV needs to be turned on for 15 minutes or longer before adjusting the picture tubes (convergence).

To adjust the convergence of the picture tubes:

Press the 'MENU/SELECT' button on the remote.
Press CURSOR RIGHT to enter the PICTURE menu.
Use CURSOR DOWN and RIGHT to select and enter MANUAL CONVERGE.
Press CURSOR RIGHT to select CONVERGE RED or press CURSOR RIGHT and DOWN to select CONVERGE BLUE.
A crosshair will be shown on the screen. If there is any red or blue fringe around the crosshair, use CURSOR RIGHT, LEFT, UP, DOWN to try and merge the fringe colors with the crosshair.
Press the 'MENU/SELECT' button to return to MANUAL CONVERGE menu.
Press the 'EXIT' button to exit the menu.

If you are satisfied with the convergence you may stop now. Otherwise, you can continue and adjust the convergence more using mult ipoint convergence.
To Adjust multipoint convergence:

Press the 'MENU/SELECT' button on the remote.
Use CURSOR RIGHT to enter the PICTURE menu.
Use CURSOR DOWN and RIGHT on the cursor ring to select and enter MANUAL CONVERGE.
Press CURSOR RIGHT and DOWN on the cursor ring to select MULTIPOINT RED or MULTIPOINT BLUE.
A grid of crosshairs will appear on the screen. If there is any red or blue fringe around any of them, press CURSOR RIGHT to enter NAVIGATE mode.
Use CURSOR RIGHT, LEFT, UP, and DOWN to move to a crosshair that has a color outline.
Press the 'EXIT' button to enter ADJUST mode.
Use CURSOR RIGHT, LEFT, UP, and DOWN to merge the color with the crosshair.
Press the 'STATUS/EXIT' button to return to NAVIGATE mode. Repeat as necessary.
Press the 'MENU' button to return to the MANUAL CONVERGE menu.
Press CURSOR DOWN until SAVE MULTIPOINT is selected.
Press CURSOR RIGHT to save the multipoint settings.
Press the 'EXIT' button to exit the menu.

Green convergance wont adjust, bowed screen

Green really shouldn't be adjusted, you adjust red and blue to the green. When a color is bowed that indicates that a part or two are bad, probably the convergence output IC's and possibly a fuse or fusible resister. You may need a tech to come adjust it for you because after replacing IC's the adjustments should be done in the servicers menus not just in the consumers menus.

CONVERGENCE

Hello divine tagle,

On your TVs menu you should have a convergence adjustment section. Find this and given the age of your TV it should allow you to adjust what is called dynamic convergence which is the center of the screen and outward. It will do so by having you adjust the blue crosshair and the red crosshair until the completly overlap. The it will have you save the setting and this for the most part is how you can set the convergence on your TV set. These are just rule of thumb adjustment, you can find better detailed instructions in your users guide, (which is you do not have it can be found on-line, or at the manufactures site).

I hope this helps

Thank you,
