To kill the auto color just ground the blank pin on the connector
from the secondary control PCB. It can make a HUGE difference.
After I found out what was wrong we did all the sets we sold.
I told the FSM at the distributor what I was doing & he pulled
a Sgt Shultz.
I know nothing, I see nothing, I say nothing, I hear nothing.
The he told me NOT to tell the cats in Chicago about it, he
would bring it up.

Thanks for that information. I recall having a console with this chassis and if I got the fleshtones right, the sky was the wrong color. To get a blue sky, the fleshtones were on the orange side. I notice this Zenith is a little that way; but, not as bad as the console. I'll open this one up and try what you suggested.
