The TV shows a black and white image: causes and how to fix the problem
TV is an important attribute of any interior. Sometimes problems may arise with the TV, for example, color starts to show in black and white. Let's try to figure out on our own the reasons for this problem and how to fix it.
Causes of malfunction
Few people are comforted by the fact that black and white is all the rage right now. If the color screen has become monochrome, you will have to try different methods, because there can be many variants of the problem:
- reset;
- poor quality signal;
- electromagnetic interference;
- defects in firmware;
- faulty color board.
Each problem has its own solutions. If the settings are reset and the color rendition is absent only on a specific channel, the image becomes monochrome. The problem can be solved as easy as shelling pears. If this is not the case, then it will be immediately clear, because after setting the color in the menu, the color reproduction should immediately be restored.
Advice! Some people find it helpful to enable autotuning - try it.
Checking the connection
Some models, especially Samsung and Philips, do not provide an opportunity to directly connect the T2 tuner to the TV with “tulips” (by the way, “tulips” are an RCA cable), since they do not have an RCA connector. In this case, a component connector is often present. Plugging the yellow cable into the green input (the hole is behind the TV) will produce a monochrome image.
As a consequence of the problem - incorrect cable connection. There is a standard yellow wire for video transmission, and three cables behind the TV for video signal: yellow, blue and red. On modern TVs, the green component jack is represented by a yellow circle. You can try adjusting the picture by connecting the RCA cable correctly.
How to fix
Each problem needs to be considered separately. The most common might be a factory reset. Then you just need to go to the menu and adjust the color. If the reason is a malfunction of the antenna, then the problem may be that the plug is inserted halfway (not completely) or some kind of problem with the antenna. You can check the plug first.
If the antenna is indoors, then you can twist it, try to rearrange it from one place to another in order to find the best signal receiving point.
If the antenna is on the street, then there is a high probability of its breakdown - due to strong winds, it could be displaced or damaged. In addition, a faulty tuner can give a poor-quality signal, in this case, only one thing can be done - to repair the device.
The problem with modern TVs may also lie in the firmware. If there is a voltage jump or short circuit, the firmware becomes defective. In this case, to fix the problem, you can connect the TV to the Internet, go to the manufacturer's official website and download updates from there. If this does not help, the only thing that can be done is to contact the master.
The screen turns black and white when the TV is exposed to electromagnetic fields from a nearby device. To solve the problem, first, you need to remove it further. Next, you need to turn off the TV for a while, and then turn it on again. If all is in vain, then you can look for the demagnetization button (located on the case) and press it.
For reference! If the problem is a malfunction of the color reproduction board, then only the master can fix the breakdown. In this case, replacement of the part is necessary.
First of all, when the TV began to show in black and white, it is necessary to check the wires for the presence or absence of damage. The most effective way is to replace your old cord with a modern one. If none of the methods helped, you can try to reset the prefix settings and return to the factory settings. The main thing is not to get upset, even if you yourself cannot cope with the problem, the service center masters will be happy to help you.
