Mitsubishi wt-46809 red shadows/blank screen

Hello everyone,

If anyone can help with my current TV problem(s) i would appreciate it.  To start, I have a Mitsubishi wt-46809 tv set.  I was giving me a red shadow for the longest time.  I was able to reset it by bangin on the side of the set.  That no longers works.  I recenlty read information about the problem being the IC conversion chips.  I have taken the back of the tv set, and have pulled the motherboard loose (everything is still connected).   I was inspecting the chips for bad soider contections, and my tv screen has since gone blank, but I still have sound.  Is this a new issue I created, or is still part of the IC conversion chips. 

If anyone can help with information to fix this, I would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin

If it's just bad solder,which it sounds like,you just need to reflow the solder with a soldering iron.

I'm thinking that's the problem, but I've yet to narrow down the exact IC chip. Is there a diagram, or flow chart that can help norrow down the IC conversion chip.

The easiest way to tell is

The easiest way to tell is let the set run for a while and see if both of the convergence chips are getting warm.

If the convergence chips are getting warm, does that mean they are the problem?

That would usually mean there

Here is a summary of what has happened...

Orginally I had a red shadow on the tv picture. I was inspecting for loose/cracked IC conections on the signal board and TV picture went out. And, when I was inspection the chips on the convergence generator and the TV shut off when I touched the IC8D09 chip. It will not turn back on. I checked to meunu/input blink code and I get a 2 blinks x 10 times. I there a way to fix this tv?

2 blinks 10 times isn't an

2 blinks 10 times isn't an option there should be a series of blinks or blink then another series of blinks then repeats

IC8D09 isnt the IC

IC8D09 isnt the IC responsible for your convergence. Id say you damaged the sensitive semi conductor inside that IC from static or from shorting pins together with continuity from the skin on your finger.
