[QuadList] Sony PVM-14L4 - RGB Appearing as GBR and Purity Problem with t...

It can be a simple fix.
 
Take a scope and look at the color signals going into the CRT.  Since  you 
know what the R G and B components look like on bars, you can tell if the  
CRT is getting the right signals.  It could be as simple as a jumper from a  
connector to a PC card is switched.  Or the cabling is wrong.  So  check 
your signals on the coax's coming in and then if they are right check the  feed 
to the CRT.
 
Now you have a real bad case of magnetic personality.  It needs the  super 
duper degaussing.  Or that screwdriver in your pocket protector is  too 
magnetic.  Keep going at it and you will get it dmagnitized.

Here’s one that’s had me scratching my head today...
 
Just bought this monitor for the too-good-to-be-true price of 69GBP (inc  
delivery).  Two problems – the colours are “rotated” so that RGB is  
actually appearing as GBR and there’s what looks like a purity problem towards  the 
right of screen (degauss operates, but doesn’t cure the problem).   Pic 
attached.
 
I’ve had the lid off and it’s not like someone could have wrongly plugged  
RGB to the CRT base board (for example).  The OSD menu is affected so the  
wrong colours problem has to be in the RGB domain.
 
No problem with rejecting, getting a refund, etc – but has anyone come  
across a similar problem with these monitors?  Very weird fault.   (But not 
once you understand it, of course!)  Current thinking is that it  must be a 
duff  CRT.
