| Color classic analog recap |

I seem to struggle power supply, and analog boards. Logic boards much better lately. This color classic analog worked before recap, just wanted to do for preventative measure. Upon putting back together got nothing, dead. Pulled part, checked all caps for right orientation and size etc. checked continuity etc, didnt find anything. Put back together and let sit plugged in. Got the crt noise when I flicked switch but nothing in terms of soft power or turn on after that. Still nothing. Any ideas? |

Other color classic analog works, other one still a work in progress. The second color classic seems to be to bright. It changes as it boots, borders seem lighter than they should be. Is this normal, my lc575 has darker borders. Not sure if recap is causing it to lighten like that or not? Any adjustments needed?

I had a similar issue in my Color Classic where the image was too bright.
You can easily fix that by adjusting the G2 potentiometer in the analog board. Power the CC with the case opened (be careful with the High Voltage areas), and adjust it live using a ceramic or plastic screwdriver turn the G2 pot (located on the right hand side beside the focus pot). |

Ok, so other analog board still blows fuse. I made the mistake of not attaching ground wire when power on. It was touching something near these resistors. Now fuse blows every time. Any thing to look for? Or check. Dont see anything burnt except blown fuse. |
