Paul Westphal Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 OK. Three out of 5 work well. One is too red, and the other is black and white and have sound. I have checked and re-checked the order of components. Any ideas where to start? Should I de-solder and just start all over ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I have absolutely no idea what I've just read.... Could you tell us more? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 Problem one : one 600xl is black and white. Problem two : The other 600xl is too ' red ' - and I just noticed it's missing c109 blue cap marked 'R'. Let's start with the one that's too red. Does that blue cap make a difference?

Paul Westphal Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 I just looked at another 600xl, and c109 is a round green cap marked 181j N150. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 The problem two 'red' 600xl has a pink-white-blue cursor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+orpheuswaking Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Well maybe if you stopped calling Jeff "poop" it might work better I've run that mod on at least 7 or 8 units and they all had perfect output. I would go back and recheck your work, as well as solder bridges etc. Did you also check you didn't accidentally hit the Color POT? I would have hazard a guess the B&W woud be PAL, but all of the PAL units already had monitor ports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 Yeah, it's not the color pot. That would be to easy. I guess I will just start over, one by one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 I fixed the black and white one by running a jumper under a cap that did not have a good connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Fixed 'red' problem one by running a jumper to somewhere..I forgot, but it looks great. I just kept moving the wire from connection to connection until the picture cleaned up. Yellow is a tad flat, but all in all much better than RF.

Mclaneinc Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Sounds like you made a right 'Poop' of that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
