Just installed another tube and convergence board yesterday. Where would one find a listing of all Nec 6PGxtra error codes ?

Well I went and double checked every thing this morning, and found one loose connector on the bottom, just below the green tube. fired it up and unit running normally,stayed running for over 1/2 hour, no more error code. It now displays "00" all the time which I think is normal. I have one problem with the green gun, with every thing set "zero ", the green tube raster is fully visible all the time, even with the contrast and bright also set to zero. What would be causing this problem ? I can not go any farther until this is fix first. Any idea to fix this ?

Check the red G2 wire, make sure it's on the right pin. This might also be the AKB setting, common that it will change somewhat when you change tubes.

Try going into the 'white balance' menu, that will usually calm down whatever tube is bright, and things might look almost normal. Then save that normal setting to the memory, and it all might be fine.

The only place for red wire[ QG ] is upper right side,I think. I went into the white balance was not able to do any thing by adjust that.
