Default Mitsubishi big screen convergence prob.


"PE" wrote in message
...
Hi all: I have a six-year-old (warranties have long-since expired!)
Mitsub.
Diamond series 65" rear projection TV that has recently developed what I
assume is a convergence problem. Pix is blurred, the three colors are
visible (like looking at a 3D film without the special glasses) and the
picture is warped and sort-of curved. Have tried the control to restore
factory default convergence settings but without success. When the
control
is activated, the picture jerks slightly and the "factory default
restored"
legend appears, but the symptoms described above are not abated. Is there
a
usual cause for the symptoms described above? Is the problem fixable by a
reasonably competent diy'er? If I order a service call, what should I
expect to be charged for professional repair of this problem? Thanks for
your replies! PE



I have the same TV, and one year ago, same problem. Convergence circuit was
replaced by a A/V technician, $50 for the part, $200 labor, $65 for the
service call.
