84 GE 25PM-C Color console problem

Glad you got it going and those are both nice looking TV's. With a good CRT tester, you could probably jolt that weak CRT back to life.

Yeah I need to get another tester. I have a Sencore CR-125 and it doesn't have the adapters for this set. Unless there is a way to hook this up and try it. I would definitely needs some advice on how to do that. I appreciate all of advice on these projects. You guys have helped me out several times.

Adaptor problems ?? You can make a universal adaptor for any
checker that will do any tube except some RCA & Zenith jugs that use
spring contacts. ( & those to if you pull the plastic key ).
You need a socket for the cable,some wire, manual of checker & a bunch of
small hook type clips. Hard to put in words but think about it
& it will come to you. If not will help. Setting are pretty much
universal except very small odd ball CRT's. The GE with the
soft tube is still pretty bright so it will probably take a shot
nicely.
Now lets get that Zenith on the bench & work on it !!!
