Display Problems In CRT TV/Monitor
By Jestine Yong on May 9, 2010
I suggest that you print out this images of CRT TV/Monitor display problems for reference. To some beginners, they do not know how a pincushion or a keystone distortion problem look like. It is important to know these images so that you will know which section to check when you test the CRT TV/Monitor with a test colour pattern program or generator.

Hi Jaspreet,
Check if the CRT RGB transistors is getting the right dc supply voltage or not. Check also the video preamp ic. Direct replace and retest.

sir i have an old crt tv that when turned on the sound is there but the display takes around 3 to 5 mins before you can see the picture…

Hi Zwei,
It could be cause by a weak tube or the heater voltage is not within spec or there are dirt/decayed glue at the heater crt board area.

Hi Jessie,
Have you checked if there is B+ supply voltage to the flyback and the HOT base is getting a pulse signal?

Hi Abdul,
Does the Monitor have high voltage?

Thanks for your reply sir
In coil there is different voltage,
How to check the high voltage?
Thanks for helping

You need a high voltage probe to check the high voltage. You can also feel with the hair pulled when you place your hand in front of the screen.

Dear Jestine,
Happy 2015.
I have a 20 years old 12" CRT monitor for machine. The problem is when I turn on, it used to take few minutes before the word displayed on it. But now, the word is very dim that I can't read it even few hours after I turn it on. What can be the problem and how to fix it.
Thank you.

HI Alex,
If the heater and G2 (screen voltage) are normal probably is the tube problem. Please visit this link for more info:

Jestine Yong
February 14, 2015 at 2:09 pm
HI Zinja,
You may have to make sure the power supply output are good before checking on the crt board. Compare the RGB voltage in term of voltage and signals. Sometimes it can be due to bad tube.

Hi Vishwaraj,
Have you checked if the TV has any high voltage? Did you see any red/orange light in the pc tube?

Dear sir am repairing a sanyo tv with fc6-b chassis the problem is tthe tv is playing well and after somme time the picture starts flickering and even playing half screen and my vertical ic heat sink is really hot when touching. I have change all elec capacitor in vertical section but still the same please help the vertical ic is la78141 and is hard to find one here in mauritius
Jestine Yong
February 24, 2015 at 8:17 pm
HI Kishan,
Make sure the dc supply to the vertical ic is within spec. A too high dc supply will cause the vertical ic to run hot. In rare cases like shorted vertical yoke winding will also cause such problem.

Jestine Yong
March 27, 2015 at 7:58 pm
HI Taiwo,
Make sure the output voltages from the power supply are good ans stable. Sometimes the noise can be due to bad flyback.

dear,sir
i have a TCL crt 14" tv, but once there was a lightning in our home and damage the circuit , & then i was fixed a China circuit to the tv. Then aftet somedays the tv make some noise on ht cap,and after 11 days when i on the tv it's made a sound on HT cap & shut off..and no ht on the fly back, then i changed the flyback and no difference........ please tell me the solutions....
Jestine Yong
April 27, 2015 at 7:23 am
Hi Md Maruf,
In order for the flyback to work normally, it needs a good B+ supply voltage and a pulse to the base of HOT. Have you checked the B+ and the pulse? Missing one of the signal will cause no high voltage/no display symptom. Sorry i do not provide video call services.

I have a CRT TV which was fine, but one time turning it on the display is curling at the bottom couple of centimetres, and showing both an overlapping of the image correct orientation, over the top of the same image (but in backwards arrangement). So for example, watching film credits you see them scroll up, around and then down! The colours are fine, and the rest of the display is fine. This affects all channels, and also all connected devices - ie. playstation games are equally affected.
What causes this, can it be repaired, or is a new TV needed?
Jestine Yong
July 4, 2015 at 9:29 am
HI J,
I suggest that you check the vertical output ic area. It can be due to bad vertical ic, improper dc supply voltage , dry joints or even bad components like bad cap in that area.

HI Reynald,
Have you checked all the components in the primary side? What about replacing the power ic and retest?
Jestine
Reynald Ramos
July 24, 2015 at 10:27 am
thank you for the reply sir J, Yes sir i already replace a power ic, as i check the primary voltage from the big caps it has a very high voltage, using my analog tester reach 600++ volt i also replace flybackbut it couldn't works what should i do? thank you in advance sir
Reynald
Jestine Yong
July 24, 2015 at 8:44 pm
HI Reynald,
The big filter cap if is is rated as 400 to 450 vdc then it should not have a 600 v reading. First thing is, does the power supply produce the right output voltage or not?

Hey Jestine,
i bought a old CRT tv, from the looks of it like 60/70's old. (black and white btw)
now with all kinds of different devices i can get good signal, the sound quality is fine, the screen itself is working, and the image does come through, but very disturbed. the horizontal lines are extremely streched out. giving a butchered image. now it does have enough buttons on the back to set the vertical stuff right, which works fine. but not horizontal.
have you got any idea?
Jestine Yong
August 5, 2015 at 9:43 am
Hi John,
This set is using semiconductor components or the vacuum tubes?

Jestine Yong
August 20, 2015 at 9:59 am
Hi Jonathan,
Check the G2 screen voltage adjustment. The G2 voltage should have at least 250 to 300 vdc. Sometimes a weak tube may cause such symptom.
Jestine
Jestine
JONATHAN
August 20, 2015 at 11:27 pm
HI SIR ALREADY CHECK THE G2 VOLTAGE IS 280 TUBE OK

What about the RGB cathode voltage at CRT board?
Jestine

Hi sir i have noticed an ic tda6108jf is not working you think this ic that cause the problem
Jestine Yong
August 22, 2015 at 10:25 am
Hi Jonathan,
Yes there is a possibility also. If all corresponding components checked to be good then direct replace this ic.
Jestine

August 24, 2015 at 1:20 am
hi sir already change the ic the problem still,i have measure voltage :R-2.4 v dc,G-2.4 dc,B-2.4 v dc,F/B-3.2 v dc,H-7.1V dc,200v-183v dc
Jestine Yong
August 25, 2015 at 9:20 pm
Hi Jonathan,
Have you checked the RGB cathode voltage at the CRT board? Try adjust the G2 voltage higher and see if you can see any faint picture. If there is a faint picture and the RGB cathode voltages are good then probably you have a weak PC tube.

HI Joesph,
Could the problem is the color patches? If yes then it is either the fault of CRT tube or a bad posistor.

Hi Sami,
Check for dry joints or bad e-caps in the power supply section. Make sure the no dry joints in the high voltage area and make sure the heater in the picture tube is lighted up.

Jestine Yong
October 12, 2015 at 3:58 pm
HI Jeffrey,
Do you mean the two transistors is bad? You said sometimes it will turn to black and white. Does this means it has normal picture for a while and then later change to black and white?

dear jestin my 14 inch Lg TV cannot display i have checked HOT there is 110V and i checked the voltage at epprom i have got 5v but at ic 7808 have four leg there is 9v in put but there is no out put voltage even i pressed all the key but when i gave 5 v for out put the display came but the key and the program dose not work
Jestine Yong
October 17, 2015 at 10:58 pm
HI Girmachew,
Is the 9 volt input is according to the tv spec? I believe it should be higher. A 4 legs voltage regulator ic should have a control pin. The control pin signal is coming from the CPU IC. If no signal means there is no output.

November 4, 2015 at 10:35 am
HI Kishan,
What have you checked? Have you checked the output voltages from the power supply to see if it is good and stable? What about the RGB test points in the CRT TUBE?
Jestine

November 4, 2015 at 6:27 pm
Hi sir,
I have checked all dc supply from smps and all seems to be in spec except in 28 volt rail am getting 36 volts. Please have a look at the chassis fc6b sanyo tv and let me know what can i do further. Thanks
Jestine Yong
November 4, 2015 at 11:00 pm
HI Kishan,
Sorry I do not have the chassis with me. Your tv was blinking when starting so start to check on any dc points that is not stable. If the 36 volt is stable then I don't think that is the cause of the problem.
Jestine
Kishan cauthick
November 5, 2015 at 12:15 am
Thanks sir but the problem with the tv is that it is blinking only when white images is shown on the screen otherwise it is mostly ok.
Jestine Yong
November 7, 2015 at 9:20 pm
HI Kishan,
When it is blinking you can measure to see which test points voltage that is fluctuates (unstable). The test points can be in the power supply output voltages or in the crt board RGB points. If it fluctuates then trace from that circuit line.

January 2, 2016 at 10:11 am
HI Fahmi,
Check to see if the G2 (screen voltage) is stable or fluctuating. Distortion could means there is a dry joint in the pincushion circuit.

Hello,
Recently i bought a set top box and an av-rf converter to plug the STB in my CRT tv. Everything is working fine but there is a set of horizontal transparent lines(not parralel) which keeps moving on the screen. What could be the problem and how do i fix it?
Jestine Yong
January 6, 2016 at 8:27 pm
HI Priyam,
Sorry not seen this problem before thus I can't give any advice. Make sure no other non branded power supply is not connected to the same power line because those power supply can cause interference. If the problem still the same I suggest that you refer back to the seller since your CRT TV was working fine.

Jestine Yong
January 12, 2016 at 9:43 am
Hi Jeevan,
Reddish can be the problem of bad picture tube or red circuitry have problem. I suggest that you compare between the blue/green and the red circuit in term of signal and voltage testing. If there is not much different then probably the tube is the fault. If there is a big different then suspect the red circuitry have bad components.

February 15, 2016 at 12:17 pm
Hi Kendill,
There could be dry joints, wrong wire connections/connctors, accidentally static killing ICs and etc. I suggest that you take your time to slowly recheck it again. If all checked to be good then you have to start to troubleshoot the TV from the beginning such as is the power supply output voltage good, does the TV have HIGH VOLTAGE and etc.
jestine

February 19, 2016 at 7:47 am
HI Kendill,
Check the link below to see how a dry joints look like:
http://i.fixya.net/uploads/images/b3590ba.gif
I suggest that you check to see if the power supply is producing good output voltages and if yes the TV should have high voltage. If no high voltage, you need to check on the B+ supply voltage and the pulse waveform to the base of the HOT.
By the way I have Whatsapp but not for business use and technical support.

I have LG 21″ ULTRA SLIM T V 21SC1RG-TP. The problem is the image is shifted too much to the left and side.it makes me unable to see some text and images.
What is the solution and how and where can I adjust it at the TV.
Jestine Yong
March 26, 2016 at 3:47 pm
HI Akin,
If there is no adjustment in the TV then you may need to track from the horizontal IC (or jungle IC) for the horizontal shift pin and troubleshoot from there. Any changes in the component value can cause the image to shift. If the internal Tv has a vr adjustment you can trace from there.

Hi Pravin,
It can be dry joints or unstable Dc supply. Check the vertical section ic for dry joints and make sure the dc supply from the power supply is good and stable.

Hi Yong, I have a 15 years old 21" Sony trinitron tv. Which is working just fine. But only problem is, when I power up the tv. Display comes after almost 10 minutes. I can hear sounds. If I change volume or channel, I can see green indicator in monitor. But no pictures. After 10 minutes, everything is fine. I can see pictures perfectly. Change channel. Everything works smoothly. But if I power off it for any reason. I face this problem again. It doesn't matter, whether I power off by disconnecting it from wall outlet or simply pressing by remote power switch. The problem is always there, once the display is turned off. What should I do?

Hi Sajid,
If the heater voltage is 6.3 volt and the G2 voltage is 250 to 300vdc and the display still dim this could means the pc tube is already weak and need replacement.

My CRT in my 1988 arcade game has a distorted picture and the picture is zig zagged down the screen. Color and sound ok.

Hi Kevin,
Zig zag can be the problem of bad horizontal circuit (missing horizontal sync), need adjustment or related circuitry problem.

Hi Alex,
I suggest that you make sure the output voltages from the power supply are good and stable. Make sure also no dry joints in the vertical output ic area and crt board.

Hi Claystone,
Have you checked if all the output voltages good and stable? What is the color of the power LED?

Hi Sandeep,
If both the transistors have problem then you should replace them. Sometimes when the green cathode gun shorted internally will also produce extra green color but usually comes with flyback lines. If problem still the same then possible the eeprom ic data could be corrupted.
