Hi All,
I've had this nice old CRT monitor for a while, but it's always had a funny color gradient and slight bending of the image on the top right corner of the screen. I'm pretty sure someone has had some fun with magnets with this thing in the past. It has a degaussing function on the menu, however, when I select it, nothing happens (besides a slight click), but nothing like what I'm used to seeing on other monitors (like a buzz, shaking image, etc). So I suspect something in the degaussing circuit or coil is broken.
Does anyone have any hints on how to begin to diagnose / fix this? Or is it a total loss?
Thanks!
