you haveing convergence issues. first question. in your customer menu under setup. do you have the conergence option if you dont i suspect the f231 fuse problem.. read this... http://www.fixya.com/support/r1062030-fl231_problem_convergence_not_in if this dont apply you may have to replace some faulty components in the convergence curcitry. let me know how it goes
you can get the FL231 at the following link. http://servicemanuals.vstore.ca/
But you will also need DL231 and CL230 or the new FL231 will blow shortly after installing it.
you need to replace DL231, FL231 and CL230 all at the same time then resolder the flyback and vertical IC, You can get the parts under the RCA category at the following link, and they provide instructions on how to do the repair. http://servicemanuals.vstore.ca/
THe rca itc222 chasis has No convergence ics it uses a series of transistors to do the same. YOU replaced the Fl231 fuse and it blew. Did you resolder flyback connections. this is why the fuses blow. check out the article under the tips and tricks section written by me willtab ... see if this helps if not let me know .. i see alot of these at the shop ( i got one right now in front of me with the FL231 probelem LOL) if can let me know i give you help
You most likely need a new convergence power supply board if fl231 keeps blowing thats the most likely cause, also check for shorthed capacitor cp231. If you need a link to get a replacement convergence power supply board, let me know I know where you can get them.
i have the same problem where is the fusible link i replace 2 boards and a connector (t.v. repair man can and diagnoised the problem but did not fix it)
I had the same problem. Thanks to the many posts on this site I was able to deduct that it was the Fusible Link F231. (See other posts about convergence problems) Was able to purchase them at mouser.com. Part# 576-3960400000 Littelfuse Fuses - A 125V UL TL LL .400A . They are only 55 cents plus shipping. I bought 5 for under $10 shipped. Only took 2 days to get them. Replaced it (needs to be re-soldered to board) and TV works like a charm!! I couldn't believe it. What a lifesaver!! Now I'm set if the fuse goes again...
Good Luck!
I have found that fusible link FL231 is the main cause of this problem. It's located by the high voltage transformer and looks like a square coil.
Check it with an ohm meter and if it checks bad, then, replace it and you should not have to realign the convergence.
Any questions or comments, respond to this post and I will reply.
when the tv turns on everything is skewed and triples in red blue and green
