Question about Philips 60PP9352 60" Rear Projection Television
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?
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

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
