Question

I just turned on my TV and there is a circle in hte center of hte screen that is ok but then all things around it are green and crazy colors! What happeneD?! how do I fix it! I turned it off and un pluged i tried fixing wires....All i did ws turn it on then it turned crazy

Answer 1

Is it a CRT style TV (has a picture tube)?  If so, it sounds like someone held a magnet up to the screen.  The set will demagnetize on it's own by turning it on and off a few times (you must wait 20 minutes between power cycles).  Or you can use a degaussing coil to demagnetize it.

I hope this helps.
