Hi all
I have this TV and the problem is that is not clear its very blur not good contrast can anyon inform me if the 3 crt have time life like lamps for projectors ?
And if so from where can i order them and how much they cost?

Typical NAP. You do not need to replace the CRT's, Let me guess the picture is either a blue or yellow haze. What happens here is the red and blue CRT's grow a scum inside. You need to remove the CRT's, take the lens's off, remove the 4 4mm torex head screws, remove the lens, dump the glycol alcohol out, clean the tubes and refill. #PCE001716680001.

Phillips part #PCE001716680001 is the fluid kit. RCA sells it also. Phillips kit comes with 3 tubes of glycol alcohol. That is what is contaminated. You need to get all the fluid (glycol alcohol) out of the tube and clean it out and refill the tube with the glycol alcohol from the kit.
