Default RCA Colortrack 2000 Rear Projection 1990 Green Ghosting Problem

Hi everyone,

I have a 1990 RCA Colortrack 2000 rear projection t.v. which has just
developed a green outline ghosting halo effect in the picture, which is
quite disturbing, lol. This also happens to be the first ever problem with
this set in the last 16 years :-(

I would appreciate any advise as to how to recalibrate, or realine the
color.

TIA!!!

They don't make electronics as reliable as they used to! You MAY have
a CRT coolant leak. Look for drops, or running drips under the CRT's.
Possibly a bad connection, or bit of corrosion on the green CRT board.
Hope this helps. Dani.
