Re: Double check your red component lead and TV input socket on the TV

Thank you for your input, John. Everything else is ok on that TV, including cable, X-Box, VCR, even DVD players when connected through S-Video. So the problem is TV's RED component input jack.

I couldn't understand what you meant by feeding "composite" signal, but I tried connecting DVD's composite output and the TV's RED COMPONENT input. Nothing. The picture is the same (clear and no distortion but just yellow and blue) without connecting the RED component jack, so I guess something is wrong inside the TV's RED component jack, whether it physically came loose or somehow got shocked.

What should I do to fix this one? It is already out of warranty, and I have some experience with solering. So if it is a loose connector that needs resoldering, I can handle that.

Many Thanks.
