Hi all. Gee guess what? Not two months and another issue with my Marquee. I was hoping I could go at least a year without having to open her up again.

I am getting a red tube flicker. And sometimes it flickers and goes completely out. It won't come back on unless I power down and then power back up. After I power back up it will usually stay on for the duration of the movie I'm watching. I have reseated all the connections at the back of the tube but it still keeps happening. I hope I won't have to replace it. Any other ideas of what the issue might be or what to look at? Thanks guys!

Try to move the red neck card to the blue and see if it still flickers or if the blue now flickers. if the blue flickers then you need a new neck board(VNB)

Thanks. It's been working that last few days. I'll wait till it starts to flicker again and then swap them.
