Title: TurboDuo, Colors washed out?
Post by: JohnnyPhantom on 11/14/2012, 02:47 PM

Hey everyone,
This could have been a mistake by me, a result of a bad cap (currently in the process of replacing them all) or maybe its just my eyes
I had just replaced some audio caps to fix a issue, plugged it into the TV for some play, and it seemed to me the colors were a lil... faded...

but im not 100% sure on this. I may be remembering wrong, or im being to paranoid since I started replacing caps, or I have some new bad caps to replace, or my AV cable is junk. I don't remember.

but my question is (and I kinda feel the answer will be yes) but would bad caps cause the colors to wash out? if not what should I look at to resolve this?

Thanks!

answer is no
colors shouldnt wash out...........ever.
weak video can be a bad C961, but it would fade the contrast

Thanks for the tip, replacing the C961 now, and slowly over time the rest :P
