You will need to replace 4 capacitors. Locations and values are C 3460 which is a 25 volt 220 Mf capacitor, CX3218 at 160 volts at 1 Mf (could be 2.2Mf), C3416 at 25 volts 100 Mf , and CX 3413 at 50 volts 22 Mf. In severe cases you would also replace the powerling regulator,(STR-53041) I don't think you need to in this case. Now the green spot you speak of may be the need to resolder the thermistor. I don't recall the exact location. It is a small disk located on the edge of the main board near the power board connection( Your 110 power cord to board). I also believe there is a glass fuse near by. This is a two legged disk that is silver. Take care when soldering this. If it does break you may replace this with an RCA part# 207768. And lastly, when replacing the board back into the TV, make sure you have a good connection to the CRT with the suction cup. It should be tight fitting with no air to escape! Thanks for asking and show a few hands of support!

Zenith 25" model z25x22s has hardly any green

Check the green output section circuit at the video output card for any loose soldering. This card can be located at the neck of the picture tube itself, will directly plugged to it. You can pull it out of it for repair. Re-solder all the suspected solder terminals there.
If you are not familiar with electronics, do not attempt to repair! Whether you suffer fatal electrical shock! Instead, contact the nearest service center!

Hazy picture

This is listed in the standard TV area which means set has a picture tube and is not a lcd or plasma.

That being said try a rear audio and video input first to see if same issue or not.

Try to lower contrast and brightness (contrast on some sets is called picture) to see if that helps.

Lastly shoot me a model and brand.

A faint line shows up down the middle of the page, when printing a photo

from cnet review of the product

  • Unfortunately, as with the Z1420, fast print speeds come at the cost of print quality with the Z1300. Black text prints, though nicely dark, were beset by obvious jaggedness. The color graphics print had a slightly faded look to it and color blocks showed graininess and faint horizontal striations. Barcode-style patterns were muddled, too. For our tests, we printed color 4x6 photos with the standard black and tricolor cartridges, as Lexmark did not include photo ink tanks with the test unit. The colors were dull, details were hazy, and again, the entire print was marred by graininess and faint horizontal lines. That said, nobody buys a $25 printer to print photos for framing or to create displays for a classroom science project. A $25 printer is a convenience item for occasional reference prints, and as such, the Z1300 does its job.

16 yr old 25" Zenith..1st colors went yellow/lime now TV is dead

Absolutely not worth repair. You have described a classic symptom of Zenith picture tube failure, and about 99% of the time the main board in the TV is ruined as well. You've gotten good life from the set (manufacturers figure tube life is around 7 years these days), so it's time to replace it.

Zenith 25" Color TV - Model A25A23W

Your problem is a bad connection on the CRT socket on the CRT driver board, a bad connection in the RGB driver supply from the video jungle IC or maybe even an intermittant Picture tube. the only way to tell would be to tap on the crt board while the sets playing with a non conductive insterment, and see if it changes. Now there is alot of HIGH VOLTAGE at this spot, so if you have no TV repoair experience Please stay safe and call in a pro to assist you. Good Luck Please dont forget to rate this thread.
