I have Hitachi model 32UDX10SA that's only 5 yrs. old. Circuit City where I bought it has closed and my picture tint is turn red. I don't know how to get to the menu for the color and tint controlls and need to have someone walk me through this or let me know where I can find a TV repair person in my area. The Cable man didn't know how to do this either. I have a HD TV and box so will need someone experenced in this as well.

I would need the model number in order to help you out with the problem. Please respond to this post with your model number.

SOURCE: Hitachi 43FDX11B television Ghosting

I had the same problem on my Hitachi rear projection TV 53FDX20B made in Mexico. The blue convergence problem. Blue focus had shifted and appeared like a blue ghost image. I followed the step by step intructions from the fixya site. First Replaced the two STK 392-110 ICs and turned on the tv. No change. Then I went looking for the bad resistor. There was one resistor RK50 (2.7 ohm, 1Watt capacity) which is attached not right close to the printed circuit board surface but was well raised up from the board. The bands on the resistor were a little discolored. I replaced that one and turned on the tv. The convergence problem was solved. Thanks for the step by step instrucitons on your site.

if you just bought it it should have a list of codes

SOURCE: hitachi 53fdx20b picture is red

This is a set first made in 2002. I have seen a few of them with too much red.

Most likely what is wrong is the RED SCREEN CONTROL. It is located behind the front grill assembly at the front of the set. Screws usually secure it from the back on either side and then it pulls off--held by pegs usually.

Behind it is an inspection plate with several screws. Behind that is a BLACK block about 3 inches square with six controls(everything is black) One row of three will be marked FOCUS--stay away from those. The other row will be marked SCREEN.

With a flashlight you will have to look closely at the two rows of controls--they will have r,g,b marked next to them. (red, green, blue)

If you go to a Black and white program and the background is redish etc--take the set to a unused Video input and after you locate the RED SCREEN CONTROL turn it slowly (less than 1/8 of a turn) to the left---the idea is to adjust just until the screen does not show red---on a blank input it should be black.

Double check it on a Black and White program and then if it was the problem the color should now be normal.

These sets did have some problems with that Screen /Focus block going bad--the entire block costs under 25 dollars and all the wires on the back of it plug in; if you have to keep adjusting it over a short period of time replace it or live with it.

I do this here for free so if this has helped you rate this solution as I do this here for Free.

The tv have a problems known as a convergence problems,it dead.The tv have colors R,G,B lines mis alignment,have colors shadows or 3D pictures.The tv convergence board,the 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all it resistors are dead.These parts,must be replaced to solved the tv convergence picture problems.The shop,will cost u $300-350 for parts and labors.
