Question about GE 46GW 948 46" Rear Projection Television

Rear projection tv

I just recently bought a rear projection tv from the classifieds, it looked fine when I went and purchased it but now that it is in my house it has a bit of a concave warp to the left side of the screen. What can I do to fix this?

Brett Paquin Jun 28, 2007

All of the colors are fine. Just the picture as a whole has warped, its like a trapezoid shape and the top 2 inches of the picture are cut off. Any suggestions?

This sounds like the solder joints have cracked on one of the convergence IC's or the IC itself has gone bad. First determine which color has shifted inward on the left side (let's say red)and then find which output IC is labeled with that color and an H (RH) and resolder or replace that IC.

GE Rear Projection TV Color Alignment We have a major problem with our TV! Some days it shoes more blue than the rest, some days more red then the rest. But everyday its blurry as all get up! We have tried the converence thing in the front settings of the TV. But that doesnt help no matter how we align the lines. We have opened the back to find a 6 screw panel on the right which works great at some time but eventually goes back to what it was, sometimes the very next time we turn the TV on again. We also recently found a 10 oxegon shaped screw panel which we just started to mess with even though there is no labels to it. All I can tell is one of them will adjust the vertical alignment of the screen. Now what is wrong with our TV & how can we fix this on our own! We arent in any shape to buy a new TV & we are willing to do it ourselves if we can! Before we lose our eyesight trying to watch TV!

TV will not change channels I have had this 46" GE for about 12 years; great picture and sound. Recently it started having this unusual problem. It will not change channels. I first noticed it while turning on the DVD and you could hear the DVD playing while the tv remained on whatever channel it had been on (from the DISH tuner). While running some tests I noticed that no matter what channel I selected for the TV, ( 7 required for my Zenith VCR/DVD combo) the DISH feed remains on screen. If I entered channel 99, the tv doesn't recognize it and the picture remains on whatever channel the Dish receiver is set for. I have no idea where my manual is, but I think it's a problem with the tv's tuner. It will not allow the DVD/VCR to capture the tv screen. Electronically, it gives indications that the DVD/VCR isn't connected, but physically it is. Would love to hear from anyone who has experienced this or anything similar to it.
