Hitachi 53fdx20b picture problem

Hi,

You have Light Engine Failure. Only fix is replace the Engine. Here is a Page that shows Hitachi LCD Projection TV Optical Engine Faults.

Check for these faults before spending money on a failed bulb. Here is page with all Hitachi TV Lamps and Bulbs.

You can check this link for that convergence that your looking http://www.partstore.com/Search/Model/Hitachi+Ltd/Hitachi.aspx
after you replace thet convergence correctly its should be working fine already..

Good luck.........

IF you are seeing a red or pink large oval area in the middle of the screen, I can tell you what the problem is.

It is not the lamp.

Let me know if you need more information--please confirm you have the red or pink oval.

Yes - You will need to either remove the circuit board or lift up the tray. If you are not sure how to do it yourself read the link below.

• This is a very common failure on Projection TV sets.
  
• Screen looks 3D
• Colors don't line up
• One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
• Screen is bowed or warped.
  

You can see some example photos and find a solution here...

It is not your Picture tubes that are bad, it is your Convergence IC's. The IC # to use is STK392-180. These are better than the originals, also invest in these resistors: 1.5 ohm 1w,,,1.8 ohm 1w,,,2.2 ohm 1w. (watt). I would by 4 each. Your soldering skills will come into play so roll up your sleeves and go to work.....Good luck ! and let me know how you do.

you have lost the green and blue in the tv. most likely cause are the crts.

Make sure your component cables are fully seated in the TV jacks, and also in the source (cable box, dvd, etc). Sound's like you are missing the green signal.
This actually happened to me and I spent an hour figuring it out.

check the transformer...it carries power to everything

you need to replace the Eeprom location 1004
