How do I fix a projection screen going black for a second till it warms up?




BigBadWill


Hello,

How do I fix a big screen going black problem? I have a 12 year old Sony Big screen projection TV. Lately when I turn it on the screen will go black for a second then come back to normal. It will do this every 5-10 seconds for about a minute then it seems to warm up and works properly until I turn it off and back on again? Anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Shaun



Answer
sony has this funny way of blanking out the picture if it feels the three picture tubes are not balanced. It figures that if you own a Sony, then you will rather not see a picture then a picture that is slightly out of adjustment. This is what happens when you first turn it on, and the led blinks. It's warming up the tubes and trying to balance the outputs. When one of the tubes gets weak, you will have your problem. In the not too far future the set will stop showing a picture altogether. The problem is a very expensive repair, it requires a new crt and alignment. This is easily more than the set is worth. I don't recommend fixing it because if one tube is weak, the others are right behind it. To replace all three will approach $1500, if the parts are even still available.

Other manufacturers would let you watch the bad picture until a friend came over and said, "that's a shi**y picture".

How much duty I need to pay if I bring 42" LED TV form UAE its cost is AED: 1500/- (Rs. 21,750/-)?

Answer
For most cases (excluding travel from neighboring countries, minors, very short stays, etc.) the limits are Rs. 8000 for most foreigners, and Rs. 25,000 for Indians and foreigners of Indian origin.

Note that this is for GIFTS---things you'll leave in India, but not commercial imports.
