bright white screen Can't Post
I had a 2004 Magnavox 51MP392H/17 give to me.The screen is bright with the brightness in menu all the way down.Looked in side the CRTs the red is clear meaning i can see what should be on the screen. the green and blue look like frost on window on the inside. would changing the coolent solve this.

Red + Blue + Green = WHITE
If green/blue are contaminated you would think brightness of them would be reduced resulting in a "bright reddish screen."

Until you can see a clear picture (with the ability to pick out individual scanning lines) in each CRT...this is usually what you CAN'T see if the tube is contaminated. It appears "cloudy," "blurry," "out-of-focus," "dim," etc.Cool

Going back to your comment on brightness being too bright... How high are the screen (G2) controls?

In regards to "+" not go up/down, Did it work correctly before coolant was changed?

no the "+" did not work before the change and the G2 controls are about half way.

Changing the ICs (and checking the bias resistors and any fuses) should get the "+" to adjust in all four directions for both the red and blue.Cool
