Convergence

[therealjeepguy]

Hi guys!
I have a Sony 51" (KP51HW40) and the convergence is way off. It's most likely a result of having moved it, but regardless, what I need to know is if there's anyone out there who has a similar set who knows how to access the remote code(s) to get into the convergence menu. I just can't bring myself to pay someone to come out when I could take a crack at it myself. I've seen the service person do it more than once, but he was reluctant to share any info on how to attempt this feat myself. I know there's a good chance that I could do more harm than good by attempting it myself. In that case, then I would call out a service guy, but at least then I'll know...ya know?!
Thanx to all who reply!

If the convergence is off by more than what you can easily adjust with the user menu and/or touch focus, then there is probably a problem with the convergence board or your mechanical allignment is off. You will probably need a service visit either way.
