Sony KP-53S15

[kumatown]

H E L P !!!! Need some advise, other than to get rid of this big screen. I have this Sony, model KP-53S15, big screen. And now, after about 10 years, the color's on the left-side of the screen are bleeding with red/green, and like a ghost imaging appears. Be it, only on the left-side of the screen, the right side looks fine. I've removed the bottom front panel, and played with the color adjustments, but to no avail. Now, after doing all that, when I go to turn on the set, I get no picture, only sound.
And, yes, the red light at the bottom is flashing. So, I have to remove the front panel, again, and play with the color settings a little, and the picture returns. I don't know what went wrong, but I need help !!!

Thanks for reading....Michael....5/3/08.
