RCA model #f27648 reds missing from picture

Check the connection between your cable box and tv.
You should have five rca cables connected. Red, yellow, and blue. the other red and white is for audio.

Regardless of them passing the eye test. Push on each end to make sure contact.
If that doesn't do it you may have a bad crt, but you are missing red and blue that would be two bad ones at same time. Not impossible. Could just be bad solder connections as well.

Your green CRT may be going bad, You can get a replacement CRT ( picture Tube) at the following link very cheaply with free instalation instructions.

Are you using component cables into the TV? It sounds like one of the 3 video cables may have come out saturating the red colors. Check your cabling int he back of the TV, see if you remove 1 by one if that changes the colors. Each cable on its own should have a picture with either red green or blue colors. If any of them are missing the picture then the colors will get messed up when all 3 are plugged in. If you are not using component cables then check the color settings on your TV. Somewhere int he menu of the television you should have something like picture display settings that let you adjust the colors. Check and make sure that the reds are not over configured or the others are not set too low. You may also want to check that your source is proper as well. Check that other sources look okay or if it is with all different connectors/sources that the issue occurs on.

Are you using the componant connection on your tv? If so, check the red, blue and green cable connections on both ends. They carry your
picture info to the tv. The audio is carried by a red and white cable. There should be 5 cables for a componant connection. 2 reds, 1 white, 1 blue and 1 green. I hope I have guessed your problem correctly and this helps you.

Bad news is the light engine failed. Good new is Sony extended all warentys for this model till June 2010 so get this to the shop, you do not want to pay for this $800.00 light engine

If you are running normal rca (red, yellow, white) for your reception try fiddling with the yellow one. this is your video feed. If they are component cables (red, blue, green, red, white) make sure that the reds arent mixed up and if its and hdmi cable it may just be faulty. Try replacing it. hope this helps

Disconnect component cable while observing screen, just to make sure that is your problem. If it is and you already substituted the dvd player and it still happens,, try replacing the cable, it may be defective. If it still happens there may be some kind of a processing defect with the component input of your tv, why not just return to RCA's

Try shielded video cables and make sure you have your cables hooked up correctly. Sometimes you can conect them wrong, specially the red one. If you are using componet in on your tv, make sure the red one is not connected to your audio. The green tint is because you are missing red in your picture.

Sounds like someone has put a magnet near it or picture projection from rear may have moved is the picture fine other than tinting?

The route through the circuits in the TV from the various sources all lead to the final video amplifiers for red green and blue. Somewhere along the route is a circuit called a colour switch. This allows colour if the signal is strong enough, otherwise it only allows black and white. This fault suggests a weak video chip which is the one just before the switch circuit. the fault could also be a faulty coupling capacitor to or from this chip, or a low power supply voltage. Check for dry soldered joints around this circiut. Please note if resoldering on new televisions that they may have non leaded solder which requires about 50 degrees centigrade hotter iron.
