I figured it out myself. R243 was intermittently open. Replaced it, and now we can watch the Super Bowl.

SOURCE: PICTURE PROBLEM(white hazy picture)

hi, symptom is caused by mis-adjusted focus, theres mechanical adjustment on lenses, and theres electrical on focus block, if tv was recently moved I would guess it`s mechanical, I strongly recommend you get a tech to do this, good luck video-tek.

My headlights keep burning out, both bright and normal. They seem to be shorting out and it's getting expensive. Right after I replace one, the other one burns out! My lens covers are also no longer clear,...

If both lenses are foggy chances are your bulbs are acting like fuses and when wet/damp blowing,reseal with silicon,or replace lenses.(when lenses get foggy it is also a sign that the chrome has oxidised.)

The color on my mitsubishi model # vs-5041 is faded and foggy.

Hi, did you try a color convergence? I used to work in Best Buy and one of the key things about rear projection TVs and the reason they push those service plans on you is that the tubes/colors need to be calibrated each year. You can do this yourself by checking out the following website:

That depens if the fog is inside or outside, outside it usually dries faster than inside. You are advised to let it dry at least another 24 hours , if the lens is still foggy after that , thab you must go to a repair shop to let it be cleaned.

Hi. Im not at all familiar with your make of TV set, I am in the UK we dont have RCA make of TV. But what you are discribing is an East/West fault this is a common problem on all TV sets. It could be quite a few things that can cause this eg (make adjustments in engineers mode, E/W coil burnt up, Resistors or caps burnt up) Its not an easy repair for a novice to tackle It requires fault finding & being able to read A meter. Usually not exspensive to put right by A shop.

Picture - Flickers/Shimmers

I think the solution to your problem is adjustment, not of the brightness but either the `contrast' which is probably too high, or the `sharpening' if your set has this function. Too much sharpness will cause a shimmering effect, especially where you see an edge between colours.(due to ringing at a very high video frequency). Too much contrast can start to turn the video signal upside down, causing noise on the peak white in the picture. Another cause is if the RF signal into the aerial socket is too large, This can be corrected by an attenuator, costing about £2. 6dB or 10dB can be tried.
