Question about Mitsubishi WS48511 48" Rear Projection Television

1 Answer

Rear Projection TV

I have a 46" Mitsubishi HDTV that is 5 years old. After 3 years, the convergence went which cost about $430 to repair. Over the last couple of days the picture will be fine and then all of a sudden it will get very cloudy - lie you're watching the picture but there is a fog over it. Please advise. thanks

Convergence Bad
Changing the convergence IC's could cost $300-$400 total.CRT based TV rear projectors are more or less obsolete now,with everything going to DLP and LCD.These days 5 years is the expected life on these TV's (most extended warranty contracts only cover up to 5 years)

Projection TV not working
The Convergence IC's have went out. This is normal for this TV after about 5 years or so. You will need 2 sanyo STK392-150 IC chips, and about 6 resistors to fix. The cost is about 50 US dollars if you do it yourself. If you are not good at soldering, don't try it. However if you are, and can read an ohmeter it will be no problem

Sony rear projection convergence
This is a convergence problem that is either bad connections on the convergence ICs or defective ICs. IF you can solder and feel comfortable working inside the set, you can fiox this yourself. Let me know if you wish to attempt the repair and I'll post more details and instructions.

How do you do an auto convergence on a mitsubishi project tv? (bought 2003). The image is overscanned. We just noticed this. It was suggested to do a auto convergence - I don't have that option (auto). I'm not sure I want to select default. It refers to red lines and green lines. I don't want to make a situation worse.

Can see strong red color in say words that might be on screen say on sports ticker or something, the letters are all there but A definite strong red letter of each first word is shown like the word done, there would be a red d the done is spelled out in normal white letters. anyone estimate cost or problem this might be!!
