- Is 0195 downloaded in the 9960 and does the
remote accept this setup code?
I thought it was clear above that 0195 had not been downloaded so the 9960 doesn't accept the setup code (but I assume beginners can't easily distinguish a setup code not being accepted from not working). I was still hoping for your comment on getting such .wav files (9960 upgrades for European devices) by internet vs. phone.
At this point, I expect that tilting the TV has somehow broken a wire or twisted a connector so that the green portion of the signal is no longer getting through. Inept as I am at mechanical things, if it were mine I'd open it up and see if the disconnection was obvious. But since there are dangerous high voltages in there even when unplugged I wouldn't reccomend that to someone less familiar with the inside of an old TV.
Now the problem with the Grundig TV itself: I
always thought that even whit a disconected powercable
TV should still remember there setting, but can
it be possible that the Grundig has forgotten
the channelsettings?
If there aren't tuned any channels qou often get
a blue screen, and if the color-settings of this
not quite so young TV are a bit weird (let's say
to much red), I can imaging it shows you a purple
instead of a blue screen.
That's an interesting theory. It wasn't clear to me whether the described symptom was a blank purple screen as you are guessing or a halfway correct image in which everything is colored purple.
