Seen this a thousand times, it's always the fluid. Take the screen off, look directly into the tubes with a flashlight and the set off, if the fluid is not clear then it's contaminated. Compare the left or Blue tube (looking at it from the front) to the right or red tube, they should look the same. You can't always tell with the green tube because most of them have tinted lenses.

It has very dim green and blue and very bright red crts. I have replaced the green crt bd with the red bd and it is still very dim. Checked the voltages on the crt bd that are marked and they are all normal. Adjusting screen controls has no effect. Could use pdf of main board. Most every thing is on it, or the crt generic part number. > Don't work on many of these but this main board looks a lot like one that I worked on a year or so ago that Magnavox wanted $700.00 for. No, I didn't buy it, I repaired it. > Paul > > Paul ,B > Central TV&Video > 911W Grand Ave > Grover Beach Ca. > (805)481-8084 > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- > Lost Password: > http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?". > Email Archives: > //www.freelists.org/archives/techassist/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lost Password: http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?".
