Sony KP-65wv700 with hourglass/bow-tie effect

My name is Leonardo, and I have a Sony KP-65wv700 with hourglass/bow-tie effect and convergence problems (on all three colors)
I changed the ICs STK 392-560 for new STK 392-570 that last longer and don't get as hot (as recommended everywhere).
The replacements are original new Sanyo parts, and I also replaced the two pico fuses PS8005 and PS8006 (5A 125V) that were blown on the other board.
The problem continues, nothing has change.
I have the data sheet of the STK ICs and the Service manual for this model.
I checked (with the TV on) the continuity and voltage of all the pins and fuses of both ICs and they're working, the new fuses are also working, but when I go to fix the convergence to either menu (regular or service menus) and I press the keys on the remote to align them, the alignment grid on the TV behaves as if it receives everything I do with the remote (blinking on the screen when I press the buttons), but the colors don't move (none of them move in any direction).
I don't know what else to check, please help!!!

    Besides the ICs and the PS8005 & PS8006 pico fuses I didn't change anything else. Which resistors do you mean? the ones next to the pins of the ICs?
    R8045
    R8054
    R8059
    R8063
    R8066
    R8069
    R8073
    R8078
    R8081
    R8085
    R8089
    R8091
    R8093
    R8097
    R8105
    for the IC8001 and then the ones for the IC8002.
    Or others?

Distorted picture and color

This kind of problem occurs due to failure of convergence output ICs in Sony KP-51HW40 tv.
Replace convergence output ICs to solve tv problem.
This set uses two of the STK-392-570 IC chips for this (convergence problem)
Local tv repairman will do this job if you have no experience of electronics stuff repair.

Picture bowed and colors don't line up on my Sony KP-51WS500 Sony KP-51WS500 its bowed and words show up different colors like in 3s.

This is a convergence problem that can be as simple as poor solder connections on the convergence ICs or defecive ICs. If you can solder you can repair this yourself, Let me know if you wish to attempt the repair and I'll provide additional details and instructions.

Sony KP-51WS500 Rear Projection TV colors are distorted.

Here are some of the most common symptoms and example photos of a convergence problem

  • Screen looks 3D
  • Colors don't line up
  • One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
  • Screen is bowed or warped.

Here is a quick test....

Using your original remote go-to the tv settings then goto the convergence section.

Try to adjust the red and then the blue convergence.



You should be able to move them up, down, left, and right.

If you can't move them in all directions your convergence chips are bad and should be replaced. This is a common problem.

You need to replace the convergence chips and convergence resistors. Check the site www.TvRepairKits.com. They have put together a kits for most models. If you don't see a kit for your set send them a quick note and they will put one together for you. Their kits include a photo instruction guide, original OEM Sanyo STK chips, convergence resistors, pico fuses, etc.

Problem #2 CRT Fluid is Cloudy

Projection TV tubes have a liquid coolant that is used to keep them from overheating. After many years the coolant in the blue and green tubes will become cloudy and cause the screen to look dull, red/orange, etc. You may even see halos around images.

Picture of a set that needs the fluid changed.

What you will need to do is replace the coolant and clean the crt. You can get a repair kit from www.TvRepairKits.com that includes replacement coolant, photos. instructions, etc.
