Question about Philips Magnavox 9P6034C 60" Rear Projection Television
My 55" Phillips Magnavox TV (9P5511C1) has a red "aura" in the middle of the screen. The picture has also lost it's crispness and appears dull. When adjusting the convergence the cross it not totally white; there is red showing through on all four points of the cross. Should I purchase a CRT Coolant Replacement Kit, or is it more likely a convergence chip problem?
Your TV most likely has one or more possible problems.
Problem #1: Convergence Chip Failure ( common problem )
Here are some of the most common symptoms and example photos of a convergence problem
Here is a quick test....
Using your original remote go-to the tv settings then goto the convergence section.
Try to adjust the red and then the blue convergence.
You should be able to move them up, down, left, and right.
If you can't move tRed "aura" in the middle of my 55" Phillips Magnav - 2c07611.pngdirections your convergence chips are bad and should be replaced. This is a common problem. Solution #1
You need to replace the convergence chips and convergence resistors. Check the site www.TvRepairKits.com. They have put together a kits for most models. If you don't see a kit for your set send them a quick note and they will put one together for you. Their kits include a photo instruction guide, original OEM Sanyo STK chips, convergence resistors, pico fuses, etc.
Problem #2 CRT Fluid is Cloudy
Projection TV tubes have a liquid coolant that is used to keep them from overheating. After many years the coolant in the blue and green tubes will become cloudy and cause the screen to look dull, red/orange, etc. You may even see halos around
TV set after fluid change
Solution #2
What you will need to do is replace the coolant and clean the crt. You can get a repair kit from www.TvRepairKits.com that includes replacement coolant, photos. instructions, etc.
