Someone with moderate experience would have to examine the red crt printed circuit board--I have seen some of these that develop a cracked ground path on that board but usually it is pink except on the sides depending which ground path is bad.

SOURCE: Screen turning pink

If the pink overlay goes away gradually, you could have weak picture tubes (CRT's) If the color jumps in after warming up, it could be a bad solder connection. If you haven't had a good picture to watch for a long time, I would be tempted to put the money towards a new HDTV set as those older Mitsubishi Rear Projection TV's had a Lot of bad solder connections in the past, and by fixing one problem another could crop up in the near future.

Does the neck of the tube glow? If not you may have a bad solder connection on the Red CRT PC board or a bad transistor on the red PC board

My Mitsubishi ws-55809 works fine although the screen turn pink but the picture is still visible. After a while it goes back to perfect color. Then it repeats this back and forth. Sometimes it will fl

Problem is likely on the small circuit board that plugs onto the bottom of the red picture tube---be careful as dangerous voltages in and around that board---each of the three picture tubes has a small board that plugs on the end of the tube.

Mitsubishi TV 1080 Gives green color and red (pink) color double images for every character and object. This is not LCD but rear projection 55 in TV.

It appears as though your convergance chips need to be replaced. If you can handle a soldering iron and are good an soldering, then you can handle this repair.

Go to this web site, and look up the kit for your tv. Your model numer is most likely going to start with WS. It can be found on the back of your TV, in the same area where all the connection ports are.
