Just picked up an R-Type with an XM-2001n in it. It currently has a whitewashed screen with raster lines going through it even with the screen, brightness and sub-brightness controls turned all the way down. I've already done the following:

Cap kit has been installed
Reflowed solder on both pcb's
Checked and cleaned guns with a rejuvenator
Adjusted B+ to 110v per the manual

Am I missing something? Would this be caused by a bad flyback?

Thanks.
Kirby

The Sharp's are switchable on board. It was in the wrong position. This game was recently acquired and was sitting in a storage unit for 8+ years. Originally, the monitor did not power up at all.

Update see pics

Mine was R602 10 ohm resistor went open near flyback, made a huge difference once I found it.
