My alba tv has suddenly lost the colour on the freeview and analogue channels but still works when i use the playstation 3, is there any way to fix this?
So glad I found this site . Same problem - colour T.V turned into B&W one. Unplugged at wall socket just for 30 secs or so..and Voila! colour is restored. Made my day. Thankyou.

What a simple solution, thanks. Took me back a few years watching in B&W

Just turned our Alba TV off and on at the wall, and bingo we have colour tv again. So thank you.

All I can say is thank you! Taking the plug out and putting it back in again worked. Didn't need to wait at all. Saved me a few bob replacing the tv. I am sure there is a logical explanation, but I'm not the one who's going to be able to provide it!

Unplug and re-plug. Doesn't matter how long you leave it.

I got on the internet and read where it said to turn the tv off and unplug for 15 mins. I did this and when I plugged back there it was COLOUR and by the way it was not that brand, so I am guessing it works on all.

I had exactly the same problem. All I did was unpluge the tv at night and left it unpluged until this morning. This worked for me so it might work for you.
