The TV menu may have been accidentally set in the wrong COLOR, HUE, or BRIGHTNESS. Try resetting the color in the TV menu. Also a loose or damaged wire and cable can distort the TV picture. Check the cable that you are using for that input and be sure it is not damaged or loose. You can also unplug the TV for 10 minutes and see if that resets the issue. As a last resort, go into the menu of your TV and do a factory reset. If the issue persists (or if you require further explanation), you'll have to consult Sony: use the contact information here--https://www.contacthelp.com/sony/customer-service.
