    Hey guys,

    I just moved apartments and my TV worked fine the first day in the new apartment. All of a sudden, it started having this really intense blue background. It also won't display reds. I tried changing it back to the default settings, but it didn't work.

    Any idea what is wrong with my TV? I had issues with Verizon this morning with Verizon and my DVR this morning with the electrical outlet not working, but that's really it. Is there a button on the Verizon remote that I accidentally hit? Thanks for advice on this google type question

    PS - When I hit the test picture button on my TV, the red on the TV shows up. It's definitely just some button I pressed.

    PPS - Hi OT!

    I actually am component because the hdmi cables caused the volume to drop in the middle of shows

    yea since you're component, make sure the cables are plugged in all the way on both ends and/or try replacing the cable. faulty connection or faulty cable would def cause this.

    *edit - also obv make sure all the colors are in their correct ports haha

    loooool I figured it out, and it's even worse than that...

    reds were in wrong holes. Had half audio as well.

    I wish I could delete this thread now...

    Thanks to everyone for help
