Picture discoloration to left and right of screen.....

obvious solution... check the settings.... you've probably done so already though. http://www.tvrepairkits.com/xcart/product.php?productid=24696&cat=3844&page=1 dull repair kit link. love the old rear projection tv's when they work right but they're finicky and monstrous, best of luck with your fix.

The tv setting may be on AUTO. This can be changed at any time to wide screen, panorama, etc. I prefer panorama

If the convergence option is still in the on screen menu its usually related to resistors on the convergence power supply board

Get a convergence kit from www.TvRepairKits.com

sounds like poor tuner singnal solution mak sure u have gooddddddd connection with ant or cable make sure ur tv is on right station exe 2 3 4 this should resolved yur problem if not if you have bacis electronis skills i instruct u on repair

Replace the optical block assy

replace the convergence ICs STK392-120 you will need both of them also check the 6.8 ohm resistors right next to the ICs as often 1 or 2 of them burn open. You should be able to notice the discoloration in the center of the resistors.

it sounds as if there are speakers to close to the tv or the built in speakers are not magnetically sheilded properly (maufacturer defect) if u have or have ever had speakers on the left and right side of your tv then the magnets in them will discolor and distort the screen. sometimes even long after the speakers have been moved away from the tv it will still look that way. you may try going to the library( or online )and looking in tv repair books on how to build a homade degauser unless your tv has that feature built into it in the menu somewhere like some computer monitors do. I had placed the front speaker of a 5.1 surround sound system on top my tv and it cuased that same problem, but i found out that by placing a small round magnet with a hole in the center on top of the tv (after removing the speaker for good) right where the discoloration was.. had to flip it one side or the other to get proper effect...it immediatly took away most of the discoloration and over time it disappeared. I hope this helps. Please email me at [email protected] as to your conclusion in case it will help others. thanks, Adam

First, repair convergence problem = replace both convergence
IC's ....STK392-110 sub to upgrade STK394-160E....I use
Hitachi part # CZ 01341.......next, look for discolored resistor
near IC's.....replace with exact value......last = activate
Auto-Intellisense.....................T.
