Mitsubishi VS-45VA1 ~ No Projection Image

hello on the remote control the should be a button half black and half white this is the pip button good
luck

shaun

could just be a convergence issue. there should be an auto-convergence feature in the menu. outside of that, you'll have to manually converge the colors seperately (also a feature in the menu).

replaced the convergence ics if you have concave triple colored images on the screen.

here's a simple test, tap the unit several times and see what happens.but, whatever happens, call a tech,it has already faulty components inside.

I found this in another website... i hope this can help you. I'll try too...

Found this on the web, hope it helps.

Sounds like the blue crt is either shorted or one of the resistors on the blue CRT PC board is open

Screen protector, it is a glass or type of plastic that covers the original screen, this can be purchased from places like Sears, Mitsubishi, MCM, etc.

There is a crt drive problem and you can isolate it by unpluggin g the set, removing the green crt socket, in the middle of the three tubes is the green tube by the way, remove one of the other tubes and switching the crt sockets and turn it on. If the set is still greenish, then the green crt is bad and needs replacement, if another color is primart, then it is going to be the green crt drive circuit and is going to need to be serviced. Good Luck

Your problem is one and or 2 differant problems. The power regulator could have went bad because of the convergence IC have shorted. Seen this a thousand(easy that!)Times. All parts in this set are soldered in and are not user serviceable. look in your owners manual or call 800-332-2119 to get an authorized servicer to come and look at your problem . I wish i could tell you what to replace but theres the Extreme Hi voltage inside these sets even when they are not plugged in .. Good Luck
