Blue screen on CRT TV
Solved
Hello, I have an old CRT TV from the brand Tokaï. For a few days, when I change channels, the screen turns blue but I still have very good sound.
This TV only has a SCART socket at the back with an antenna socket that is no longer used. In front, there is a headphone socket that no longer works and two sockets, one yellow for video and one white for audio, which also seem to no longer work.
At the back, a SCART cable is connected (which goes to my box) that I have tried on other TVs and it works perfectly. My box also works very well with other TVs.
Could someone tell me where this blue screen is coming from since my TV was working fine before and it happened suddenly? Personally, I am torn between the SCART socket of the TV being faulty or the CRT tube starting to give out.
Thank you if anyone knows how to help me.

Hello,
Have you tried with another source, like a DVD player for example?
Otherwise, on some TVs, a blue screen = no signal
Have you checked your connections?

Hello, thanks for the quick response :)
The TV works well with a DVD player, sometimes the colors shift a bit to red and then a bit to green, but very faintly.
I hadn't thought about the lack of signal because since I have sound, I was leaning more towards a TV issue.
In any case, I'm going to keep it to watch DVDs in another room where I can't have the TV.
Thanks for giving me the idea to try it with a player; otherwise, it would have ended up in the junk disposal.
See you soon. -
