LaPorta Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 My main-use SE has developed a curious issue. Every so often (maybe a few minutes), the screen will suddenly get noticeably brighter by a bit, then later, back down a tad bit darker to where it was before. It is not huge: I only noticed it when using the SE in a darker environment. However, it is noticeable, and it could be the harbinger of a larger issue in the future, so I want to nail it now. This machine has been fully re-capped, with a great CRT, and otherwise the screen works perfectly without any issues at all. Ideas as to what might cause this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ymk Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 I'd look at the brightness pots, both the external and the trim. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LaPorta Posted December 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 External seems to work just fine, raising or lowering it doesn't seem to affect this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

techknight Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Did you deoxit the pots? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
