I have a 25" K7000 that I just got from someone to look at.

It looked to have been capped already so I just hit it with the Rejuv because the thing looked very dim. The Flyback has black knobs and looked pretty solid. I've tried the 50/60hz adjustment and it wasn't it.



it fades darker to the left side and then you see this darker area flowing upward if you look closely... I've never seen this problem before.

Could it need another cap kit or a replacement flyback?



Thanks for pointing me in in the right direction.
 
Dark on one side is usually caps. Can't specify which one though.

As for the black bar, try adding a ground between your PS-GND and the monitor frame to see if it goes away...
 
Thanks Guys!

C57 came apart when I desoldered it and after redoing the whole thing it went away. Sadly C57 was one of the last ones I did

It was cooked from the heat from those ceramic resistors.

Didn't do the ground as it was already grounded from my test rig. That cap fixed it however.
 
Street Fighter Alpha 3 ftw. mine's got a K7000 too, woot! :D

your color gains look sky high. I'd save that tube and turn them down a bit.
