Thanks for the input ballin023. It's definately something with the red color spectrum. When I watch a movie with red colors in it, the red colors turn light green/yellow for a few minutes then back to normal. The TV is 7 years old. Does this type of tv have seperate components for red, yellow, blue. WOndering if somthing wiht the red components could be fixed?

Sounds like your picture tube is going out, if its an old tv it would be best to let it die since its very costly to fix these problems. If its new you better get it looked at. It is a hardware problem, nothing you can do about it.

The screen turns blue after about 2 minutes of turning on the TV

Sony TVs has an Optical Block issue. If there is an issue with the optical block, then there will be green, blue patches or tint on the TV display. Try resetting the TV to the factory settings and try Power resetting the TV. Turn Off the TV and remove the power plug from the wall outlet for 1 minute and reconnect it and check the operation. If the issue still persists, then TV may require service. You can contact the Customer relations team and check for the available options. Sony had repaired free of cost for such issues.

My sony trinitron takes a few minutes for the picture to come on once the tv is turned on. then the picture continually goes on and off.

Most likely this is a bad CCFL inverter. These go bad a lot ion these sets.

Tv cuts off and green light flashes

If your set was manufactured around July 2005, you may need a firmware upgrade to solve this issue. On the Sony website you can enter your model # and serial # to see if you TV is affected. If so, it is easy to have done and may be free from Sony. It sounds like the issue they described in the writeup on the required formware update. I had mine done within few months of when i bought it (purchased in Dec 2005) and it has been working flawlessly since.

Good luck!
