SOURCE: Green Wavy Lines, and lower Convergence Issue

Before you call for help is a good idea if you check the solder conections to the convergence Ic's and resoldered them and while you are there check and resoldered any overheated areas.If the soldereing corrects the problem you will not have to worry about convergence adjustments,as long as the set is unplug you can carefully work in the chassis without having to touch the anodes of the picture tubes,stay away from them.Lets us know how it goes.

SOURCE: Convergence not lining up

Sounds like the green is out of focus. If the focus control for the green does not control it enough to make the width the same as the red, then, the lens on top of the green can be adjusted to focus that tube. On the lens, there is a wing nut on a screw to loosen it and move the lens left or right a bit to help with the focus. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: Mitsu Proj TV WS-65711 needs Converg IC chip. Part Co$t + labor?

Parts for $80 to 90?!?!? HOGGWASH!! It's $21 at mcmelectronics.com for an orignial Sanyo. For a WS-65711 it is indeed a STK393-110 and you only need one of them. I've heard that this usually the culprit when there are convergence problems. The pico fuses can go, but that's pretty rare. If you can solder and feel comfortable inside your TV, then this can be done at home so you'll even save on the labor. I suggest buying the part yourself and asking them to install it.

Panasonic pt-50lc13 small wavy lines

Look to see if it happens on the rear audio and video inputs--that will narrow down where the problem is.

Be aware this model was RECALLED and all original owners were supposed to have the set replaced a few years ago.

Also rule out the signal---if using a cable box connect the cable without it directly to the coax fitting---box can cause this---stranger things have happened.

Panasonic projection lcd pt-44lcx65 pink wavy lines

The problem is the computer in the TV is set to hold data for 2500 "On/Offs" Once you turn the TV on and off 2500 times, the dots start to appear as the computer cannot store anymore date. Call Panasonic, they will send a tech to your house for free and reset the computer and update it at the same time from 2500 to 1 million on/offs so it wont happen again. It takes maybe 10 mins to complete.

Hope this helps.

Wavy red lines or red pixelation, not sure what it is

Go to Vizio website and buy the extending warranty, you need to have your TV replaced since the problem is with the screen itself.

57" Toshiba with wavy green/red lines "good overall picture"

Appears to be a convergence problem, the chips are located on large aluminum heat sinks. Check near the 2 or 3, STK IC's for + and - voltage usually 20 to 25vdc. If 1 or both are missing, check microfuses. They should both be close to equal in voltage reading, if not, turn set off after it has been on for 10 minutes, feel the heat sinks at each IC,if one is hotter than the other, replace both IC's or all 3 if it has them. Now check the small low ohmage resisters in and around the STK IC's and you will most likely find a few burnt or discolored and have changed in value, replace these or the new chips installed will self destruct.
