Shadow in corners and shadow running down whole left side tv

If your RCA PLD50A45RQ television has a shadow on the left side of the screen, it may be caused by a problem with the internal hardware of the TV. Here are a few things you can try to fix the issue:

1. Check the cable connections on the back of the TV to ensure that all cables are securely plugged in. This could be the problem if the cables are loose or not properly connected.
2. Check the settings on the TV to make sure that the picture is not being stretched or distorted in any way. This can cause a shadow on one side of the screen.
3. Check the TV for any physical damage to the screen. If the screen is cracked or damaged, it can cause a shadow on one side of the screen.
4. Check the backlight of the screen, if it is not working properly, it can cause a shadow on one side of the screen.
5. If you have tried the above steps and the problem persists, it may be best to contact RCA customer service or a technician for further assistance.
6. It is also possible that the problem is with the T-con board or the LCD panel, in this case, it is best to consult a technician to check the TV and possibly replace the damaged component.

It's important to note that if the shadow is persistent and appears even when the TV is turned off, it could be a hardware issue that requires service or repair.

watch for speakers being to close to the tv. if a speaker has a big magnet on the back of it, it will cause it to have the shadow and then it will turn green. so make sure there is nothing with a magnet close to the tv because it will ruin the tube on the tv.

If you can't see the shadow when you go into the menu it's your connections check youe HDMI connecters

I have a Toshiba LCD TV .a very light shadow on the screen just to the right

Ur convergence it dead.know how to solders?Tries these websites for convergence kit.Tv repair World.com,Tv repair kits.

does this shadow go from top to bottom on the left or right side app 1" to 2" wide ? if so your light engine needs to be replaced

replace light tunnel = use service manual for procedure....T.

Is it an LCD or DLP? The Model below suggests it is an DLP. Sounds as if you have the dreaded light tunnel collapse common to all LG DLP TV's. Inside the light engine there is a square tube made up of four mirrors. These mirrors deform and crack with the heat of the lamp. They fall down over the light aperture and cause a shadow of varying degrees. It is fixable now at a realistic price ( used to have to replace engine) as LG have made the parts available. It would take a competent tech around three hours to complete or if you are technically minded you could do it yourself. I hope this helps. Good Luck.

I have the same problem and was told by a technician that I need to replace the light engine. Probably around $ 700.00.
