Samsung HCN4727W	Can't Post

Hello everyone. I just aquired a Samsung 4727W Rear Projection TV. My Cousin gave it to me. He was trying to adjust the red beam and ended up cracking the mirror in the back of it. I tried looking on there site for a new mirror and no luck. I have downloaded the service manual and it list Mirror-front and mirror-back. I guess my first questions is, which mirror do i need. There is only one in the back of the TV? Also the blue gun seems to be pretty dull. Once i got the TV to somewhat work, tried to use the perfect focus, but thats not working. I think because the mirror is crack. So i went into the service mode and adjusted the red green beems. But the blue, i can bearly see. Could this be cause by the mirror or is the blue CRT going? Any help would be great. Please let me know if you need any information. I can also provide pictures if you would like to see what im talking about.
Thanks you,
Chris

As far as mirror goes, make a "drawing" with all measurements, including thickness, and your local glass and mirror shop should be able to supply you with an appropriate replacement. Is the blue tube coolant contaminated?

Great thanks for the info. I was thinking about doing that, but i wasnt sure if it was a "special" mirror or if i can get one made.
I didnt know that the the TV had coolant for the CRT. How do i tell if its contanimated? I looked in the service manual and is doesnt say anything about coolant.

Also the blue gun seems to be pretty dull.

Or is CRT Bad (weak)? (or did your cousin turn down the blue screen?)

Im thinking that the blue is bad. You can only really see the blue like right in the middle of the screen. It gets duller as it goes towards the edge of the screen
you can see it here.

Have you cleaned all the glass (optics/mirrors, etc.)?
Since red/green are OK, should just need to check blue tube lens.

Well. I cleaned what i could. I took a pic of the blue tube, which now i see why its doing what its doing. if you go back to that previous link you can see the pic. I guess my next questions would be how do i clean this. All those smuges and stuff are under the glass. I tried to take it apart,but i dont want to break anything. Do i have to remove the whole tube out in order to clean that?

Can you post pix of Red screen/tube and Green screen/tube? (just like you did for blue).

Coolant contamination is rare, but possible:

Tubes will disassemble - look at pictures in posts for Philips coolant change.

oh yeah, i put the tv back together, but when i had it apart the green one was pretty bad and the red one didnt look too bad. But all 3 had gunk in them or something. So I will def have to replace the fluid and get them all cleaned up. I looked at a post and found how to clean the guns out. So i will try that this weekend. I have ordered the coolant so hopefully i will have it by this weekend. I also am having a mirror made to replace the cracked on that is in it. Im hoping that this fixes everything as 30 dollars with of stuff to fix a 1500 tv isnt bad at all. Again thanks for all your help with this, i will def repost once everything is working

Red least/seldom effected. Careful to remove all coolant, clean very well, and don't cross-contaminate.

Hey. sry it took so long to reply..but i change the fluids in the guns, wow what a difference. Now i have another problem which was a problem before, but i was hoping the mirror would fix it. both my red and blue gun are messed up and im not sure what would cause it..if you look at this link you can see the bottom to pics are the crosshatch patterns for the blue and red. the white spot is just the flash

Also check the return resistors, B-Plus & fuses.

So i went into the service mode and adjusted the red green beems.

Plus you'll probably need to do more than just customer convergence proceedure.

well the convergence adjusting i was doing was in the service mode, not the from the menu. The red and the blue wont move up and down and when i do get them to move it doesnt move right..kinda hard to explain. I will check the resisters and stuff and let you guys know whats going on. Thanks for your help again

Re: [clmowers] Samsung HCN4727W [In reply to]	Can't Post

And since they weren't working correctly in the customer's convergence, you figured they might move better from the Service menu?
One is based on the other. Must be able to move red and blue from a normal center position in all directions (above/below/left /right). If red & blue WILL move left and right of correct center but not up or down in the customer mode it WILL also have difficulties in the Service mode (UNLESS somebody screwed up the service mode settings to get it that way in the first place.)
Kind of like compensating with adjustments for vertical size (due to bad electrolytics) rather than troubleshooting the vertical problem in the first place (and then having to reset the controls).

How does Customer one respond? Should have one (or more) of the following: A "One-button" automatic, a manual menu driven up/down/left/right (Center and/or multi-point) or in good old days, rotary controls.
