Vizio 37" LCD color problem!

Red tint on picture while watching t.v. or playing xbox. Every channel just seems to have more of a reddish hue. This model doesn't allow me to change the red, blue and green hues.

    I have the same problem with my Vizio 37" too. Mine is less than 6 months old. I decided to go back to the store where I purchased it, before I was going to call for warranty work. I purchased the Visio because at that time in the store the picture looked just as good as the more expensive tv's there that were all in the same row. When I returned to the store, I asked the sales man if that was the same Visio that was on display when I purchased mine. And it was. Now in comparison to the other tv's there the Visio's color was just like mine at home,dark with red tints. It look horrible. This must be a common fault with this tv. Has anyone else had this problem and gotten it fixed?

    Our's is about 9 months old and we are having the same problem. It started about 2 months after we got it and then mysteriously went away after about 2 weeks. Then about 1 month ago it started again but has yet to clear up. We haven't found a solution and are regretful that we spent that kind of money on this televison. Our old 19" worked great, survived an earthquake and lasted almost 15 years. So much for modern technology.

My Vizio 32 inch HDTV picture colors are all off. I have tried to adjust the tint/colors but the overall picture colors are all off. It is as if some of the primary colors are missing.

Maybe if you are using component input wires, one is not inserted fully. Set color to max and put tint in the center, then flip channels and look for known solid colors items of red, blue and green. You can see when one is missing, as a mixed color will just look odd, but a true r,b or g will just not be there so to speak. Hopefully is might just be a feed wire in, but be careful, as too much pressure on insertion can crack a solder joint inside the set.

Samsung big screen tv model pcl542r has a green or red tint to picture

This is for the 50" Vizio TV,

It sound like the control board has a problem. There is two way to fix this.

- Upgrade the firmware of the control board, If you can find the firmware upgrade device.
- Replace the control board (I think this the best solution)

I haven't had any problems with my VIZIO, but I have had several really good experiences with their service people, so I would recommend calling them up. They have great product guaranty and if for whatever reason you got a defective item I'm sure they'll help you out.
