So, finally figured out the problem with the Sony 46z4100.It's diffuser (thickest one) was completely yellow and so i was getting a yellow tint on screen.I can't find any information on where to get a replacement or a substitube. Can i run the tv without the thick one ? If not where can i find one or is there a substitute that i can find at like home depot or something?.

Thanks

Re: Sony KDL-46Z4100 color distortion, possibly T-con?

Here is the panel image from the back


You might not be able to see the difference but the light coming off is yellow but the middle where the tcon sits on has white light. The whole back panel should not have any yellowish light at all, instead white. Correct?...

This is my first attempt at repairing a TV and it looks like i already messed up

The TV's colors are distorted and yellowish.Picture kind of looks grainy if any.All inputs work and so does sound.I went over PSB with my DMM and no bad caps and everything checks out in that area.I'm guessing the mainboard is good because the picture work and the sound also works.

Looks like this but a bit grainier:

The previous owner told me i was most likely the T-con board, i'm leaning towards this as well....
