Customer complained of "lines thru picture" intermittantly. Turned out to be IC601/ LA7838 with poor solder. Changed it,instability cured. In setting it up, we noticed the color was very weak, almost B&W, but usable. Made sure all the automatic color settings were off ( AI, color preset,etc). Entered menu,pix settings... the amount of contrast will change with the OSD bar moving, but color does not increase or decrease with the OSD bar.Stays same.The colored OSD characters are good color. Found no preset pots on chassis.
