Re: SONY TV model KV-32XBR96S---Bad color purity--help needed

Just fixed a the same problem in a set the other day - bad PTC (Three-legged
device near where the degauss coil connects to the board)

Pulled one of a SVGA monitor, and popped it in the set, and at the next
powercycle it was sorted out.

SONY TV model KV-32XBR96S

This TV was recently given to my grandson ... I am a while retired from
servicing but still have my test gear.
He expects me to fix it so I have a few queries to make that could speed
this
up.We have bought
no manuals as of yet or had the back off.

The set was given to him minus the remote control and no speakers.

Appears to be working and has a nice bright focused picture except the
color
purity is terrible.

There are four knobs on each side of the case near to the front close to
the CRT
face. I am assuming that these are
where the speakers would normally attach.

1/ Would there need to be speakers in place for the set to have good
purity
i.e.Are the speaker mag. fields
compensated for inside the set? Otherwise the speakers placement would not
be
significant.

2/ The screen symptoms are a symmetrical wide rainbow from the center
screen to
the lower outside corners.

3/ That pattern can be distorted by a magnet but restored by the usual
degaussing methods.

4/ I have no knowledge of the history of this set so I cannot determine if
it
has been dropped .
Or worse somebody has been inside "fixing "

5/ At the moment am unable to access the service mode.

I am asking for opinions as to whether this set is fixable ,
If so we can invest in a service manual and a remote control.

Anybody help me out with this ? Thanks
