John, Not at the shop now, but remember a small filter off the "T" chip that I had marked for "erratic color". In SAMs, it was on the lower edge of the drawing on the video output section, going to a power supply line. (That will narrow down the hunt) Paul W C&W Electronics Azle Texas ----- Original Message ----- From: John Florea To: techassist Sent: Friday, June 13, 2003 3:49 PM Subject: [TechAssist] RCA CTC169CC2 Mod F27230ES I am experiencing intermittent loss of color in this unit. Have soldered all the bad connections I could find, and flexing chassis doesn't affect. It is probably a cap somewhere, but I was hoping to see if someone had a tip on this before I went through testing all of the ones on this set. Thanks for any help.
