my tv picture has somehow magnified itself. it looks like when you move a movie projector further away from the screen. my tv is an old style teac. if anybody could help me with this problem, that would be great thanks.
Yes it is possible you have a pincussion problem, but most of these TV sets are made by JVC TV sets. JVC has a problem with the horizontal sweep correction circuit. There is a high voltage capacitor that coes bad in these TV sets. Not a job for the novice or handi-person. you will need a multi-meter and a ESR capacitor checker meter. Play it safe and have a pro look at this TV set. Good Luck, let us know how this repair goes.
A model number would be nice. How old is this TV set?
