Hello guys!
My tv convergence is out of wack, double image, curvy red image. I have been reading the posts here about this issue and everything points out to replace 2 IC's.
Before doing that, is there any adjustment that I can try within the tv's main menu? I don't have my user's manual, if anyone knows where I could get it it will be greatly appreciated. Also, does anyone have schematics/repair manual/troubleshooting on this specific model?
What type of convergence IC's does this TV has (i.e. STK392-110)?
Thanks in advance everybody for your help,
BJ
Your model uses Two STK392-010 Convergence ICs but alos check the 4.7 1/4 watt resistors usually a couple of them go open when the Ics go out.If you cant converge the red and blue by way of the remote and convergence settings you need new ICs the service manual wont help you with that. just check the resistors with one side out of circuit so you dont get resistance from the surrounding circuit.
I do have the Service manual if you would like a copy post your email and I will gladly send it along to you.
Slinteriors, Thanks so much for your help!, I ordered the IC's yesterday, hopefully I'll get them later this week, already took the board out, and going to remove those IC's and check the resistors. Could you please send me a copy of the manual to: [email protected] and [email protected] (just in case don't have enough memory in my yahoo account).
Thanks again, I'll let you know the outcome,
Vince
when replacing STK392-010 Order Stk392-040 the 040 are higher Watts and will last 3 times as long JUST Make Sure to BUY Original SANYO NOT China made generic Aftermarkets
Thanks for the advice dude, I ordered the STK392-010 a couple days ago; I didn't know so I went for what the TV set has as direct replacement, maybe next time...
Thanks anyway and keep the great job you guys do here!

Guys,
Got the IC's yesterday (Thanks to Slinteriors for your prompt help), applied heat sink compund, solder them, plug everything back, set it in place, power tv on, and there was picture! just a little off in the convergence (I was trying to adjusted from the menu, before replacing the chips, so, I misaligned), did a little adjustment and there's a clear crisp picture now on my Sony KP-53S25 Rear Projector TV, Nice job team!!!!! Thanks so much everyone who replied and whoever read this thread!!!!!!!!
