Re: Anyone who can help

Hi Tom ...well I had a look inside and you are right the LCD is a Samsung ...I checked the video and put in the "tab bond shim" but does not seem to have helped ...this is what I had after and the color does not settle down really now except when you change to tv but no red in picture but no red lines ....is it kiss good bye time to my tv.....

Re: Anyone who can help

took about 1/2 hour last night for color to settle ..left it on all night and color has not faulted...you can go any place on settings no ghosting at all ....just seems to be on initial start up.... could there be anything loose inside as I have not checked that yet as I was waiting for your advice...or do I just have to live with this until screen actually goes for good...

Re: Anyone who can help

Hi .... sorry took so long with pictures........you can see ghosting ... but as you can also see the picture has gone to normal colours last night... problem being when you switch it off and back on it ghosts again with no red in picture ....once it settles after a good while all colour returns .... now i am really even more confused...to my problem ... thanks Dod...

I have a Polaroid TV ( Model P40LCD12 ) power supply : 220-240 V ~50 Hz 190 w..... My problem started with when i switched it on about a week ago with my xbox i got a red screen came up then faded into black . Everything works but if you have something on screen for instance when you bring up the tv channel at bottom of screen when you leave it it has a red hue which slowly fades away . When viewing tv there seems to be no red in the picture ...seems to be just blue and green working. I have just had it returned by a so called tv tech who said " Its your screen and he could not repair it...
