Colour problem on rear projection tv

I have a large rear projection tv and the colour isn't right, the reds are too red and other colours don't look right but then the picture looks dull at other times. I have tried adjusting the settings and converging colours but doesn't make any difference. Is it something that can be fixed or is it beyond repair?

    Hi, thank you for the help, this sound like a job for a technician, but how do I know its not the tube going? Because its such a big tv I don't want to haul it to a repair man to find its a problem that is too expensive to fix. Can you tell me how I could tell the difference? Thanks: Ann

This might be something really simple... In a large number of DPTV310 chassis, of which this TV is, the yoke connections where put in place with black electrical tape just below the retaining rings. Job is to loosen the rings, remove the tape and push the yoke back in place and tighten down retainer.. Be careful not to throw off the tilt of the yoke. The adhesive on the tape, over time, gets hot so many time it becomes slippery and allows the yoke to fall away from it's position dulling the look of the image (or focal length) causing the problem you're describing here... It also throws off the convergence - so in attempting to converge it just looks worse. Good Luck Bill

    Ann,
    In a PTV like this a crt failure would be absent that color or not lighting at all...
    My best advice for those not sure is get an estimate first. Most shops, like mine, charge for an estimate - then based on the estimate if you choose to have it repaired the estimate fee is waved. If it's too much too repair it only costs you the estimate fee to find out...
    As an insider secret, most of the really difficult work is done in the estimate phase. All the tear-down and testing take place during the estimate, so a tech has already earned his labor he would be charging you for the job based on the estimate value. All s/he needs to do then is order parts and complete the repair.
    But there are customers with more money than brains that figure after the estimate it's not worth it and scrap the TV when in reality it is really worth fixing. But they go out and buy a new one.. That's why most shops have taken to charging for the estimate. If it were just simply free a few weeks of free estimates and I'd be on the unemployment lines...
    Hope this helps.
    Bill

Can see image but the screen is all red

Generally Tv screens use three different colours to make the picture, and if one or two of these colours don't show you will see the picture but in specially one colour (like looking through a red filter in your case).
If you are using an input into the TV (DVR or Games console etc) then I would firstly move the cable around in the back of the TV and the console to see if anything changes or flickers in and out of being correct. If this does happen I would recommend buying a new cable to fulfil the purpose.
If this does not happen and you are still seeing red then there may be an issue with the connection inside the back of your TV, this shouldn't be a very expensive issue to fix as you are still getting a picture but I would recommend getting a specialist to check it out if you are not confident in fixing this manually.
Thirdly and most unlikely is the settings inside the TV have changed, some TV's like yours will allow you to change colour settings on the screen. I would go into the menu and find the section that allows you to change the colours and have a check to see if any of the settings seem off.

Picture is OK, but colors are off and there is a blue star background that shows on dark colors.

Hello, With most rear projections there is usually an alignment to do with the set up with your TV. This is so the red, blue and green projectors align together to give the correct colouring. This sounds to me what may be causing the outlining of the blue. This can also make it seem off colour. Look in the set up menu of the tv and see if you can find this alignment feature. Usually a cross will appear and you move a blue, red, and green cross with the arrows on your remote to align over the original white one. If this does not work, it may also mean that one of your projectors, that is the red, blue or green one may be failing causing the off colouring. Hopefully this alignment may fix it for you.

Problem with a colour display on Hisense tv

If your picures are all purple it means that the green colour is missing. TV colour is made up by mixing Red, Green & Blue. Removing Green leaving Red & Blue makes purple. Study the green colour circuit for a fault and confirm that the green gun inside the tube is working.

Hdtv has a red screen

Looks like you got some convergency issues there, I would consult a local repair place like www.teexp.com put in your zip code and see if they service your area and TV.

They can also give you a estimate on how much it will cost to get it repaired.

LG rear projection colours out of alignment

I have a similar problem with an LG (except my red is the one that is fine) and was able to talk to a tech in some detail about it. The tech prefaced by saying that he had done a hundred or so of these with exactly the same issue. This is very common and the life span of rear projection televisions is not great. Having said that, plasmas and LCDs are also limited in life span mostly due to modern high performance gaming machines which shorten the lifespan of monitors both plasma and LCD alike.

From what I have gathered, this is not a problem that you can easliy sort out. (Of course they would say that though) It involves replacing the digital board which means soldering followed by aligning the lamps which requires quote a lot of expertise.

The part itself apparently costs around $200 Australian and the labour will vary for the cost of the technician but I was quoted that the labour was about the same cost as the part.

Not sure if I would call this solved but I hope it has been at least a little helpful.
