I think my Neck board is done on the Red channel.

I'm no expert, but I don't think there's any way you could do that by messing with the scan frequencies. Not only are newer PJs like yours generally auto-protecting from out-of-range signals, but I can't see how something would kill one tube's output and not the others.

Nope, the neck boards just go on the Xtra's. Not your fault at all.

Highest resolution i tried was 1280x1024 80 Hz that's when I got a message on the screen that frequency is too high and projector will be shutting down. Then as an experiment I tried 1280X1024 at around 48 Hz and that is when I lost my red channel. So it was at low frequency. Also I should mention that when I got the projector red tube was slightly too bright and it's the only tube showing signs of ware, I understand that green one should be the first one.

|
|
Before I will buy a new neck board I decided to swap the red one with the green. I removed the red tube neck board and was attempting to remove all the connections from it. Two connectors will not come off, are they soldered in or should I use some extra force to remove them? Can I test the projector with Green tube wires not connected, will this cause some ill effects? Attached is the image showing connectors I have the problem with. Thanks
