Television 1960s 23" Weltblick 511TR

[Retro-guy]

I just picked up this set as you can see from the pictures its in mint condition,very low hour,I only went for its cause of its nice wood finish,but when I got to it,I saw in what great condition it actually was.The
seller told me it was pretty much put out use as new,maybe cause the flyback failed on it and they never fixed it.It comes from Austria which means its a European set .When I went there to get it
the guy even had the original box in which this TV was bought new .

When I got it there was no raster only sound,so after further investigation I found out that the flybacks secondary winding had a short winding.

After rewiring and re-wounding it the set came alive but I wasn't ab-lee to adjust contrast and brightness,but the picture tube is very bright and seems healthy,which would make sense if its very low hour ...

After further testing I found a open winding on the secondary winding of the flyback,but more deeper inside then the shorted one ,open winding doesn't show on scope ring test,if it were a short then I would find it earlier .... The open winding is used in the voltage supply circuitry that goes to the grids of the picture tube (which could explain the brightness and contrast problem ...

So I had to rewound the flybacks secondary windings AGAIN (the non high voltage ones )
Now we will see if the problem goes away ...


Also what is the most simple way to inject signal/video in this thing ? I tried a vcr but didn't get anything ?? gonna try a different VCR later ...
