Ferguson FTV150T (15" CRT). Picture Darkens....
Hi there people.
We have only had this TV for just over a year and it has gone wrong. You turn the TV on and it works fine, but after about 20 minutes or so the picture starts darkening very slowly, and the sound starts to get crackly - again, very slowly. Does anyone have any ideas? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Demon. |

Ferguson FTV150T (15" CRT). Picture Darkens....
............ Update ................
Just done another test on the TV - leaving it on... after 30 minutes the TV has lost its colour, gone dark and has red and blue lines running across it, horizontally http://www.alienmoons.com/public/images/ferguson.jpg 40 mins and the colour is still gone, but the lines have gone - so it is like a B&W TV. 50 mins the TV switched itself to standby mode, so I turned it on again to find the picture is perfect. after 5 mins from switching it on again there is a red bar at the top 8th of the screen. 10 mins and the bar has gone, and saturation has gone down to about 50% 15 mins, the red and blue bars are back, and the sound has gone. picture is wobbling side to side quickly. Again, any ideas? Thanks. Demon. |

You will know instantly when you find the problem if the picture cleans up. |
