FIX > Knowing Zeniths I was ready to write this one off, as it looked exactly > like a bad CRT with no green output. > CRT was OK. > Down on the main board (9-1809-01) in front of the jungle (ICX2200, > TA1242N) were three transistors, R,G,B drive Q2204,2205,2206 all 2N3906. > They feed the three video output transistors on the CRT board. The > green one was shorted, Q2205. Replaced it and all is well. > A quick ohms check with my Fluke on the three vid. outputs on the CRT > board showed one has lower resistance than the others, but after > removing it it was OK. So I followed on down to the board. > Phil Bader > > -- > > Philip Bader > Jan Phyl TV Inc. (estab. 1976) > 3420 Recker Hwy.
