ive got one for you.

Question from Brad: I have a wells gardner u2000 monitor that doesnt work good at all, although it does work.

The picture is always way too dark no matter what i do, and also, it is always washed in a purpleish tint.

I already sent the chassis off to texas for a recap and he replaced the resistors and the flyback as well.

I know that it was in fact done, because the guy i sent it to is a friend of mine, who has also repaired many jamma boards and 8 liners for me.

with all that has been done, the only obvious answer left is that i need a new tube, or rejuvenation.

I have an almost brand new sylvania model 6424TFS 24.5″ tv sitting around collecting dust.

is their a way i could find out if the tube will interchange into a u2000 chassis, without taking the tv apart first, or will i just have to tear it down?

Thanks, Brad.

Response from Tim: Yeah sounds like a short in the tube. Most important thing will be to make sure there are the same number of pins coming from the neck and that they will plug up. IF that’s ok it should be fine.
