Service menu access (Older Hitachi RPTV)

[d_rob1031]

Anyone know of a site where it explains how to get to certain brand service menus? I need to work on the convergence of an older Hitachi HD-Ready TV

The model is 53sdx01b

I've searched Google all over the place and everyone wants you to pay for the service manual, I just want to fix the convergence.

Thanks in advance.

If you want the manual try HERE

If you have a problem viewing the pdf search for it HERE and then download it.

Page 64 looks particularly fascinating.

Thank you so much. You don't realize how much that helped.

remember to write down the factory set numbers when messing with the Service Menu.

You could cause great harm to the TV if not done correctly.

There were no factory numbers... it was simply 2 different tests with a crosshair in the middle of the screen. It's not perfect but it helped. I would say the TV would need new parts to get it back to the way it was. I'd love to be able to find a more in depth convergence settings menu.
