SO I MOVED THE KDS-R60XBR2. i PICKED IT UP FROM MY EXWIFE HOUSE AND THE tv was working perfectly(part of the divorce settlement). I put it into the back of a Mercedes ML SUV with the TV facing up, laying straight on its back. That is the only way it would fit. I drove 3 hours back to DC and now the screen has a green tint all over it. but it works. on the static channels, there is a like a green blob moving in the center continuously.

rule number one
there are NO color wheels in sony light engine tvs ie kdf kfe etc
rule number two
the sonys that require the smaller bulb and have brightness issues need the bulb replaced because the lens in the bulb has degraded
solution new bulb
i wish the people with kp sets would quit asking stupid questions about replacing light engines
THERE ARE NO LIGHT ENGINES IN CRT PROJECTION TVS
the class action lawsuit for sony tvs has resulted in replcement of the light engine or replacement of the entire tv with a newer model
the one i have here a kdf55 needs the polarizing filter in the light tunnel but sony probably wont be able to supply the individual filter
not to be confused with the air filter on the outside of the light engine
all fans need to be cleaned in these tvs with compressed ait
sometimes the fan needs to replaced and the tv will not turn on in the case of a fan that doesnt rotate or turns to slow
display 5 volume down poer will give errors on sony tvs that display
samsung tvs are more reliable and will still need a lamp replacement
sony tvs inthe kdf series may need a thermal fuse in the evnet they do not turn on there is a simple replacemnt sony part number for this
also noticed that the inside of the screen assembly is dusty on this tv and needs to be manually dusted including removal to acheive
if someone can come up with a replacement for the glass filter in the kdf55 engine please email back or post
im not sure if its a polarizing filter or what
it defintely has a burn spot in it and replacing it with a samsung filter results in a overly blue pic
later call sony or samsung customer service if you dont get satisfactory results from bby or cc service
you should register your product any way

It seems that Sony LCD TV facing durability issues in their LCD TV product. They should call the customer service to fix this technical problem. Fortunately, I don't encounter any of the following issues in my Sony LCD TV.
