Hi folks.
Working on an old SE.
Got the machine working but the display is sooooo bright.
Tried turning down the brightness with the knob under the front panel. At lowest setting the display is still too bright.
So opened it and tried adjusting down the brightness on the analog board. This had zero effect in that it is not working
So I just recapped the analog board and tried again. No change at all. The brightness pot on the analog board has zero effect.
I checked all the solder joints on the pot and most of the rest of the analog board , cant see any problem.
Can these pots break , die
There is a fair amount of screen burn on the display as well so i am wondering do these screens just wear out !!!
anyone ever had this problem ?
cheers people
