monitor problem

ok im just going to clarify this with some of the techs here...when there is a color missing from the monitor completely that means it needs a cap kirt right? cause if its like the tube i can change that and even if its the caps i can change that but i just want to be sure...its a wells gardner model too.

Maybe a cap problem, but one of the color transistors may have died.

Missing a particular colr generally would be either a bad transistor on the neckboard, bad color adjustment pot on the neckboard, one of the large resistors on neckboard, or a bad picture tube. Usually a capkit is what I always do first to rule out the possibility of a bad cap.
