Hitachi 55EX9K Red Problem

Hello, we have one of these old (1994) rear projection hitachi models and the red is becoming distorted. The colour leans to the centre of the screen horizontally. I cannot correct the error with the convergence settings.

I am wondering if this service mode I have heard about may be able to help?
Does anyone have an idea of how I can find out how to access service mode with this TV?

Alternatively, we may need a new Red CRT i think. Does that seem reasonable? Also is it possible for someone to replace a CRT by themselves without the aid of a technician?

Thanks in advance.
