Hello XXXXXXXXXXXXXX,

Thank you for asking your question on Just Answer. The problem you are having with the TV is a convergence problem. Most likely the move caused a cold solder joint in the convergence circuit. This can change values of components and cause other components to fail soon after. To repair the TV will require that it be analyzed by an electronic technician with the proper test equipment to diagnose and repair the problem. This is not a DIY repair due to the cost of the test equipment and the training needed to operate it. You can expect the repair to run in the ballpark of $400 to have the set fixed. When repaired the set can fail at any time since the projection TV sets do not have a long expected useful life due to the fact that they tend to run hot and the number one enemy of electronics is heat. Most consumer opt to replace the TV sets instead of having them repaired. That is why you often see them for sale at bargain prices or even for free. I wish I could tell you there was a button that you could push and the TV would work again.
