I have a Sanyo 32" flat screen CRT HDTV that keeps turning green?

We've had the TV for at least four years. This started about six months after we got it. We had a repairman come up twice, and he didn't find anything wrong either time. If we rock the TV back and forth, it will eventually go back to how it's supposed to be.

All winter (October-last week), it NEVER turned green. Now it's been back to doing it. It doesn't make any sense. Any ideas? It's no longer under warranty, besides, the repair guy couldn't find a thing wrong with it. And of COURSE it wouldn't turn green when he was here.

    Rocking it back and forth makes me believe it has a loose solder connection on the circuit board, or perhaps a loose connector between the boards. Loose connectors are quite common culprits. I would carefully tap the circuit boards looking for a loose connection, and I would also feel each connector for tightness while watching the screen for changes. These operations are always best performed by a knowledgeable technician.
