Westinghouse 27" lcd hdtv

Picture flickers and jumps wildly from top to bottom similar to a vertical hold adjustment problem on older tv models once it is on for several minutes. it may right itself and hold but most of the time will not.

    I have the 32" model and have had the same issue as well as a green or red hue on the picture. Been on the phone with Westinghouse and they deny there is an issue.

    looks like vertical hold has gone, can this be adjusted in the service menu and if so how do you access it

I don't know if this will work for everyone, but we were having much the same problem with our Westinghouse LCD TV (which is what led me to this site in the first place.) After a great deal of experimentation we have found that if we keep the backlight setting at 3 or lower we do not have the problem. If we try to view it on the level 4, 5 or 6 setting the picture goes crazy after 5-15 minutes and does not clear up until the set has been turned off for about 30 minutes. Good luck! I hope this works for you too.

My Wesinghouse 27" lcd hdtv jumps and vertical hold is out of control after being on 15 mins. The cable company checked the connection and it is clean. We did not damage the tv. It has been doing this since we got it. We did not get a service contract. Sometimes the screen goes black with a small rolling picture on top. Help me please. Can the maufacter still help us?
we lost all the papers when we moved.

My sinotex 42inch stl-43vn86d picture flickering jumping top half bottom half no picture got sound

That may be a bad T-CON board, but more likely it's a fault in the LCD panel itself. Check whether it's under warranty before doing anything else.

I have a westinghouse tv, model ltv27w2 and the picture is clear but it rolls and jumps constantly. any ideas on what part to replace?

Fault at its main digital board. Short circuited component/s at it. Contact any service technician; or the authorized service center. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts.

In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.

My RCA tv picture is jumping

Vertical jumping may have a vertical hold issue, horizontal may have a horizontal hold issue. Most older tv sets will have some knobs or adjustable screws for vertical and horizontal hold. Turn your set on and check for these knobs on the back of your set and adjust until your picture is in as well as you can get it

27 inch Zenith TV Vertical too big

If you are using a DTV coverter box, you may have changed the aspect ratio with your remote control. look for a button marked "aspect" or "picture size" use that to change size.
If you have a cable box, you may have a similar button.
Or you may find a picture size adjustment on your TV remote.
If you do not have "aspect" button on your remote try going to set up menu and look for picture size.
Older TVs used to have a vertical size adjustment at the back. look in the manual.
If none of the above, you have a biiger problem with the TV internal parts needing attention

I have a magnavox tv model # 27MY6005D/37. Where can I get an owners manual and I have a line two inches on top like the tv bottom is on the top. How can I adjust that? Thank you

According to the model# you have a 27 inch TV so this would mean you have a bad capacitor in the vertical circuit 100uf 35v and you may need to replace vertical IC as well.Call Mats for parts 1-800-628-1118 for owners manual try Encompass Parts 1-800-638-3328.Somtimes if picture pops back to normal then resolder Vertical IC but if thats not happening, replace parts.
