Hey all! Hopefully someone can give me a little guidance on this. I recently picked up a 60" RCA rear projection TV on the cheap, dead. It had a coolant leak on the green tube and was causing the anode to arc. I repaired the coolant leak and the messed up anode lead so now the unit powers on, but the convergence is totally messed up now. I expected it to be a little off, but nothing like it is. Originally I was able to get the crosshair all lined up in the center of the screen from the user menu, but things were still out of alignment around the edges of the screen. So I was tweaking the other controls behind the speaker grille and I have made it worse. So I talked to a service center and they are telling me it can take up to 8 hours to set up the convergence and that the HV arcing has probably damaged the convergence chip.
What is everyone's thoughts on this?
Thanks! James
