Screen seems to shrink and get a red and blue line on each side of picture then returns to norm size. It only did it for a number of minutes when turned on now does it all the time.

Hi, Norm,
There will be a key " P SIZE" or picture size on the remote control. Please use it to get the required size of picture you want.

I think that is just how the settings are applied in wide screen mode a little over sized

the magnifing unit is going

Hello clifftonian,

I would suggest checking the HV trippler block and the voltage output from the IHVT (Integrated High Voltage Transformer), and comparing them against the schematic diagram. In addition to this after solving your HV problem I would suggest doing a complete convergence adjustment, both static and dynamic. Just don't go replacing parts because that approach does more harm then good. Troubleshoot the problem and find out what other parts are marginal and replace them all. Your stepdad is correct with a good place to start.

I hope this helps,

Thank you,

Blue Gun is right side of TV if you look in TV from back side. Part number is as follows..

8-733-663-25 {CRT 07MVC62(B)-L} [KP-65WV700 ONLY]

hi you have faulty convergance ic also there may be some faulty resistor and capacitors that sit in front of the ic, thanks

replace convergence chips and limiting resistors

you need to change the CONVERGENCE ICs , if you cant do it then it needs to be serviced by a HITACHI authorize service shop , hope this helps AJ

Having the same kind of problem, only mine occurs twenty or so minutes after start up and only on the left and right sides of the screen.

ok you have a vert sweep problem and yes its probably connected to in a way to the "tap and fix" problem! Seems to be n intermittant connection on the vertical out put Ic or maybe even on the rgb convergence ic?? The total loss of sweep though tells me that theres two differant problems! Maybe and intemittant connection on the vert output Ic as well as bad connections on the convergence ic??.
