What cables is the customer

Determine what cables the customer is using to connect the BD to the
TV and if connected properly. Refer to OM for connections. Tighten any
loose cables. Make sure the customer is not connecting a BD to VCR.
Copy protection can distort the picture on older VCR models.
Is the TV set to the correct input?
NO
YES
Make sure the TV is on the correct input according to the connections in
use. Video when using composite, or component. DVI when using DVI,
and HDMI when using HDMI.
Is color fine when watching
multiple discs?
NO
YES
One disc displaying the issue is a problem with the disc. Make sure the
discs the customer is using are compatible with the BD by checking
“playable discs” in the owners manual. Multiple discs displaying the
problem indicates a problem with BD-HTS.
Is color fine when watching a TV
program?
NO
YES
If the cable or satellite programming is connected through another input
and the customer does not get color, the customer has a problem with
his television. If a TV program does have the color, the problem may be
BD-HTS, the cables being used, or the TV itself.
Is color fine when the BD is
connected to another TV?
NO
YES
Connect the BD to another TV and play a disc. Good color during disc
play back indicates a problem with the first TV. Please refer to the owners
manual for instructions on how to connect the BD to a TV. If the BD has a
problem on the second TV, then see service chart for service information.
Has the customer tried another
set of cables?
NO
Have the customer try another set of cables. A bad cable can also cause
video problems. Test the cable with another device to the TV to also
determine if the TV is bad. If the BD is the problem, please see service
chart for service information.
