slice Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Try this, Component video inputs: Make sure your cables are connected correctly at both ends according to the green/blue/red color code. If you still have problems, try a different set of cables. Component video color is carried on three separate cables. If your blue cable is bad, the picture will be yellowish or greenish. A bad red cable will cause a bluish-green picture, while bad blue and red cables will give a black and white picture. A bad green cable will cause no picture at all. By the way, if you have a bluish-green picture with a buzz in the sound, your red audio cable and red video cable have been reversed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captf Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 .. have you tried turning it off and back on again? Is it using SCART, HDMI or composite for the connection? I'd guess HDMI... Is it affecting all connected sources to the TV? [DVD, Sky, Freeview, whatever?] And are they all fed through the same cable(s)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted May 13, 2015 Author Moderator Share Posted May 13, 2015 ok thank for the replies. (except noise ) its on hdmi input from cable, so nothing to do with inputs. also does it with scart too I've check the T-con cabling in the tv and checked the caps to see if they have blown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nayruf Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Hi, I have a TV that started to play up. I did a net search and found out that there had been an issue with this model of TV, I called the manufactures help line and found out that there was a recall that I was not aware of, so even though my TV was well past its warranty they still sent me the replacement part at no charge, could there be a similar solution for your tv? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE0 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Did you get your TV sorted? if not try a factory reset... From the TV Menu, choose OPTION -> Factory Reset -> Yes (wait for a few seconds for the TV to download again) -> OSD "WELCOME" appears -> Press OK button -> Choose Language -> Choose Home -> Select your Country and Time Zone -> Press OK button. might be worth a go!

Moderator drewpy Posted June 6, 2015 Author Moderator Share Posted June 6, 2015 I scrapped it on the end I used a freezer spray (actually dust buster upside down) and sprayed around the edge of the screen. If the panel was faulty the picture would come back. It did which suggests the panel has broken and was too expensive to renew. I since bought an LG 47" smart TV, which is very nice thanks for your ideas though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted June 8, 2015 Moderator Share Posted June 8, 2015 I've an LG smart 3d TV - very impressed but I still haven't worked out all the bits and have never watched anything on 3d. The Magic Mouse controller thing is ace though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted June 8, 2015 Author Moderator Share Posted June 8, 2015 I use a free LG app on my phone, easy to navigate and uses a touch pad for the pointer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
