Unstable Image / Losing Sync

If you are losing sync on your AES, especially when a bright screen is displayed, you may need to recap the system. You can also replace the following components for a better sync signal (as the values used on the board were for cost-cutting).

  • Replace the four 68ohm resistors near the AV output port with 75ohm resistors.
  • Add 220uF capacitors in the empty footprints near the AV output port.

Solid Color Screens

If your unit displays a solid color on the screen, check the below table for its meaning.[1]
