If I had to guess... Two big convergence IC's, both labeled STK XXXX or something starting with STK. Near the two IC's, several resistors, maybe 8 or so. At least one resistor has failed, maybe more. Likely more.

Blue is really wonky on your set whereas red and green seem to be okay. You probably have one bad IC or just a bad resistor

So, if you want to do this on the cheap, you can try to see which IC is bad, if either, and figure out the resistor values, and just order what you need. The downside of this is the other IC could fail at any moment and you're back to square 1.

Or pay the $75 for the convergence kit, which should have better resistors, along with step by step instructions. (I'm assuming you saw the kit on tvrepairkits.com... they provide instructions) Fix it and not have to worry about it.

Just advice from a guy whose been there, done that, more then once.


Oh and another thing to check is the image brightness. Make sure it's not maxed out in the TV's menu. If it is the CRT's might be getting tired and the set's not worth your time. If you really want one of those behemoths you can probably find one that works fine, for the cost of moving it out of somebody's house.
