> Ok, this is a strange one. I just fired up this 31" CTC187CL2 set which
> I replaced the HOT, 2 caps and 2 resistors. It appears to be working
> fine except that the picture is backwards, as like you are watching in a
> mirror. The vertical display is proper- heads are at the top of the
> screen. At first I thought I must have simply connected the hor. yoke
> plug in backwards, but it looks like it it is plugged in properly. The
> brown wire is on the left and the red wire is on the right (looking at
> the yoke connectors from the CRT socket end), and the key on the plug is
> facing the front of the set, the same as the vertical yoke plug is. The
> other end of the red wire connects to the main board near the flyback,
> and the brown wire goes to a spot close to the heatsink near the front
> of the chassis. All on screen text is backwards, as well as the video
> itself.
> I checked with another CTC187 chassis I have in the shop, and the yoke
> is wired up the same way. I haven't powered that set up yet, but I never
