This is nothing that a new picture tube wouldn't fix...... big $$$$$$
..... it is probably "new television" time.

Note, this is not a binary group, so no picture made it through.
You will have to post it at a binaries group and reference it here.

That being said it is an "M" line Zenith tv set from 1993 through 1995 which
almost guarantees from your symptoms the picture tube is the fault. A
proper diagnosis with the test equipment inside the tv set is still required
to either confirm or deny the crt as the problem.

About 70% or so of all Zenith tv's and Citizen tv's made by Zenith
since around 1992 till now have defective picture tubes that cause
either a defective green gun giving you bright green screen or a G1
short causing the power supply to become defective:

either way 70% of them or so have a defective crt and many are only a
couple of years old,I tell the customer that an average tv should last
over 12 years and I give my customers Zenith's phone number and I tell
them to complain to them:

LG ELectronics (Zenith/Goldstar)
Alabama,USA
Ph:1-800-243-0000

I have had at least 100 customers call Zenith and complain about those
garbage crt's.

I am going to start calling many of them and find out and then I will
let all of you know.
