Fuzzy Picture Picture looks good and then it goes fuzzy to the point you can't read the type. Do I need a new TV or can this be adjusted, new bulb???? Thanks so much Michael

Try going into set up menu and look for a screen degauzing function or try setting the screen temp. to warmer or cooler.

this models have coolent issues. I would tke off the front screen very carefully , as it may seperate , get a friend . Do not scrach the screen. then look down inside the units CRT's (Cathode Ray Tube) and see if its cloudy or fuzzy looking . While there look at the blue tube as well. If its fuzzy replace the coolent.

problem is inside tv,,, a component called as picture tube base is got problem ,,pictube base connects the picture tube to the circuit board inside ur tv..call aservice men to replace it

Sometimes dust can get in between the lamp and lens take lamp out and check for dust with a lint free cloth.
If thats not it it could be the manufacturer of the lamp. I usually try to get the same manufacturer. You can try tinkering with sharpness or contrast but remember the points you adjust from just in case it makes it worst.
Good luck

Yes you will get a better picture quality out of a cable box if you get an HD cable box.
The reason you are getting the diminished picture is due to the signal you are feeding the TV is an analog signal. The newer HD TV's are made for digital TV and this older technology shows all its flaws on this type of TV.

When you get the new box understand that the same channels you are getting plugged directly into the tv are still going to have some grainy look to them but the good thing is that a lot of them are starting to be rebroadcast on HD channels and that is where your new toy will truly shine.

Enjoy your new TV...

Good Luck...

adjust the antenna! or the cable connection could just be loose or dirty!

Inside the set you should see a large part with a red wire coming out the top. That is the flyback transformer. There will be 1 or 2 controls on the back of it. One should be labeled screen and one focus. Carefully adjust the focus one until the picture is again in focus. Please note that in that area are high voltages (33,000V) that can be dangerous. Be careful where you touch. IT is best to have a mirror so you can see the picture while adjusting the focus control.

You can't make SD look like HD thats why HD came out, the best you can do is adjust the picture controls to get the optium picture

• your problem is due to crt getting weak
• because of that you are getting fuzzy picture.
• good luck.

Try using your RCA imput to see how the picture looks compared to the tuner picture,is possible your tuner imput is bad,make sure the conector is not loose,the overall picture should look different but not fuzzy all over,using a dvd picture thru the aux (rca)imput should show you the difference.If the conector is loose only it could be repaired but if it is solid the tuner might be bad and it will need to be replaced along with any board it might be mounted to.Let us know how it goes or if you need more information.
