I capped and replaced the xixsters and I'm still having the same problem . Theres faint lines that connect to the objects on the screen and move with them and also the brightness of the picture will randomly get bright then fade really dark , also some times on the left side of the screen it will get wavy . I reflowed new solder to all the connector pins too . Do I have to adjust the brightness and contrast with the monitor on ?
 
yes you do

Son of a .....is there anything near there that can KILL me ! Can I do it by hand or should I use a screw driver ? The brightness knob ain't too bad but that contrast knob is short and weird .

So adjusting that might fix the faint lines that come out of each object ,

So I adjusted the brightness knob and it doesn't effect the faint lines or dot in the middle of the screen , so I'm thinking its that contrast knob that will maybe fix it , but I'm afraid to adjust it !
 
Well the knob I thought was the contrast was the horizontal adjustment ! So I found the contrast knob which is actually much easier to get to .

Picture looks great !!!

One last thing , the vertical needs to be adjusted because the bottom on the screen is a little cut off , I couldn't find that knob , where is it ?
