Hi,
I have a Sharp Image Electronics 19" monitor in my Mr. Do. Pretty much the same as a K7000 http://www.therealbobroberts.net/monitor78.html
Earlier today, the monitor worked fine, only red was really dimmed.
I was testing the RGB on the tube by grounding the neck pins on the neck board so the screen shows full Red or Green or Blue.
One end of the wire (alligator clip) was attached to the chassis and the other was touching the pin. I got green to show fullscreen...and then...I accidentally grounded the left pin (circled in red). The neck glow became very bright and then the screen faded to black. No images, no more colors, nothing.
What did I messed up by grounding that pin?
Looking at the neck board, that pin is unused. Still, it connects to the neck and I probably damaged something in the neck when it became really bright.
Thanks
