They can be very stubborn. If youve taken the heat sinks off the circuit bd so it is in no danger just knock em off of there they can be stuck good. If is the circuit bd your talking about then I guess you realize they are soldered in to the bottom

You will be watching and the tv will go black & volume goes away almost like it turns off for 45 seconds then it will turn back on first with picture then sound for like 2 to 3 mins then it happens...

Try pulling the back plastic cover off and colling it with a box fan and see if it still happens. You may have a heat buildup on one of your heatsinks. If you are technically inclined, you can use a temp probe and locate the offending component and clean off the old heatsink paste and apply a fresh coat then screw it back down.
If not, at least try to locate the overheating part and try to find a brave Geek who loves soldering irons.
Other than that, it may be time to find a real TV tech.

Green color has taken over tv

OK IF THE COLOR GREEN HAS "TAKEN OVER YOUR TV" AND YOU USE A CABLE BOX, ITS PROBABLY THE CABLE BOX. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. YOU JUST NEED TO EITHER HIRE SOMEONE TO COME TAKE A LOOK AT THE TV AND/OR CABLE BOX, OR BUY A NEW CABLE BOX AND/OR TV! SIMPLE,HUH?

TV Issue Still

Hi Sam,
I was researching on the problem, and have quick question to ask , have tried putting the system in auto tunning mode ? To retune the channels.
If retuning doesnot do the job, the system would have to be taken in for repairs as the Tuner card inside the TV would have to either serviced or replaced

Thanks

Sony KP61HS10 and timewarner digital cable box. Don't know which is the problem. Problem is a blue/white ghost on all channels. Tried unplug both units, tried flash focus. Shadow/ghost is now curved image...

I'm going to guess that these ghosts are of different colors too. This is most likely a convergence problem. Try resoldering the pins on the convergence ICs first. If that fails, replace them.
These ICs are large and black, attached to a heatsink. They will be marked STKxxx.
Keep us posted.

You might have burned out the red color crt. In projection TV's there are 3 CRT's (one for blue one for red, and one for green). If you have the other 2 colors but no red I would assume this is your problem. You should be able to get it fixed for around $150.
