Hi,
If your tv is Sony KP-57HW40 then its problem of convergence out chips failure and will be replaced. If tv is any other model, please mention it.
Let me know if you are handy with electronics stuff repair and can replace parts in circuit board with proper tools to provide you more technical details.
Thanks.
I am handy enough to do circuit board repairs, soldering, etc. If you
could provide more details about the part(s) that need to be replaced,
that would be most helpful.
=============================================================
Great, it is solution for Sony KP-57WH40 tv that has skewed picture.
There are two big black ICs mounted with aluminum heat sink on D Board and number is STK392-560, these are convergence out chips that gone bad and requires replacement.
STK392-560 are available in Part Store for $38 each and tv needs 2 ICs.
Thanks for recommending the convergence out chips.
They appear to attached via phillips head screws.
Do you know if a phillips head screwdriver is all that's needed?
And are there any electronic recalibrations that have to be performed after I install the new chips?
======================================================================
There are 2 screws just to mount with aluminum heat sink to keep chips cool but..
Each chip has 18 pins that are soldered in circuit board, need to unsolder these pins to take out bad chips, put new chips and solder its pins in circuit board.
Good soldering expertise are required to fix tv problem.
It appears as though I will need to take the whole circuit board out in
order to be able to get to manipulate the chips. The reason why is
because the chips are on the opposite side of the heat sinks. Do you
agree that I should take the whole circuit board out?
If so, are there any "gotchas" or precautions I should take?
Also, what do you recommend using to clean dust off of the 3 projection lenses?
==========================================================================
Yes, if you take out circuit board from chassis, this would be easy to replace chips. Pull connectors that are required in that process and put them back after chips replacement.
Cleaning of dust is good, use cotton cloth to clean lenses.
Chip pins are soldered to board, that is correct and need to unsolder pins but chip is not glued to aluminum heat sink, there would be 2 screws on sides of each chip, remove them, chip pins must be unsolder from circuit board, take chip out easily and if you feel its glued, use some thing like flat screw driver at side of chip to pull it from aluminum heat sink surface.
That white glue is silicon compound that used to transfer heat from chip to heat sink quickly and smoothly.

OK, it sounds old chips blew off pico fuse in power supply board as well.
Pico fuse is small resistor look part that has 2 pins either side, check PS8001 to PS8006 on D board and PS5001 and PS5002 on power supply board that provide +/-22 volts to convergence chips.
Thanks.
I have found PS5001 and PS5002 on the power supply board.
I am
looking for PS8001 to PS8006, but I don't know what the D board is or
what it looks like. Can you tell me where to find D board?
=================================================
D Board is the same board where you replaced convergence out chips (STKs) and PS8001 to PS8006 are located near these chips.
all PS are safety pico fuses and replace only that in case any of them found blew off/ open.
Do not replace all of them unnecessary. Check above said pico fuses and if any one found open/ blown, replace only that one.

I have removed the circuit board.
What I have found is each chip is not only solder into the board, but also glued to one of the heat sinks.
How would you recommend removing the chips?
Should I unsolder the heat sink and chip at the same time then work on removing the chip from the heat sink?
Would it be useful to send you a picture of what I am describing?
If so, is there a way to attached a picture or send it to you somehow?
I replaced the two convergence chips, but the original problem still remains.
The good news is that I successfully desoldered and removed the old chips, solder the new ones in place and successfully connected all of the cables.
The reason why I know I was successful at the above is because the picture is the same as before.
Can you think of another reason why the picture is distorted and out of focus?
Here are a couple of photos that I took.

Are you recommending that I replace PS5001, PS5002 and PS8001 - PS8006? Or should I look for components that are damaged/burned?
