Have an older sony rptv. Just started bowing at the bottom of the screen creating double vision on the image and some discoloration. Top of screen isn't affected

Rob.. Besides the model number... It would be best to post how old set is

1997?

Month mfg'd ...etc

The serial number range

How many hours you watch it?, etc to increase the chance someone can point you in the right direction.


Does it do it "cold" and "hot"... Do you notice when heavy trucks /trains drive by it changing? (Vibration) (Try "tapping" on the cabinet to simulate vibration)

Depending on how old it is, it might just be a bad solder

If the set is 8 years old like you posted here:https://www.ecoustics.com/cgi-bin/bbs/show.pl?tpc=2&post=489345#POST489345

It's probally not worth fixing.

PS: Why did you start a new thread? Why did you NOT post the model number... mention that it was 8 years old in this thread?

One last thing.. when you DO find out what was the cause (if you get it fixed) be man enough to post back what the fix was, how much, the parts affected. Try to include the parts numbers of any parts replaced. That info may help someone else with the same problem.
