DVDs are only in black and white

I just got a used Samsung 53" TV. My DVD movies are only in black and white. I tried all combinations of wire hookups. I finally did get the audio to work. But movies are not showing in color.
Thanks!

Most Big box stores have a DVD cleaner disk, located in the electronics section, which is fairly inexpensive. I would try that first.

Why GE TV plays color DVD/VCR tapes in black and white

Some inputs on tvs won't process the color signal. Try one of the other inputs. Mine does the same. If u have already used the working ones on something else, U will need a switch to select one or the other available at Radio Shack if u can find one.

Bring it back to the place of purchase since the item is under warranty, this is a manufacture defect and you are in your perfect right to have a replacement.

It is not clear whether one DVD or all DVDs play in black and white. If it is only one make sure that the format of the DVD is correct. If it is all DVDs, given that the VHS tape and cable play with color, there could be a problem with the chroma circuit in the unit. This is probably something that a technician would need to diagnose. Good luck.
