Well, there are only a few possibilities at this point. The one that kind of yells "Come on, look at me!" is the cable. If you are using a shielded cable and don't get the problem, it seems natural that getting a new, shielded cable for the specific type of output your are using is the answer.

The other possibilties are much less likely. There could be a problem with the connectors (they're loose or there is a short) on the Wii or the TV. There may be something wrong with the Wii processor where it outputs some signals correctly but doesn't output one type of signal (I think the problem is with component output, correct?) correctly. I don't know how a Wii operates, so I'm not sure if the latter applies.

Solution--find someone else who owns a Wii and other cables and see if you can reproduce the problem. Process of elimination will show the culprit.
