Hi, this monitor does not have an OSD. Those adjustments are controlled by pots on the mainboard/neckboard.

Without schematics, starting with parts known to fail under similar symptoms is solid strategy.

My gut says you're right, given the failure mode I watched unfold.

I searched Jason Scott's Discmaster for "5468NI" and found old shareware versions of Anatek's "Resolve Monitor Repair Database" on some commercial CD-ROMs. They're DOS programs which list many monitors and repairs. Unfortunately these versions only have information on the CTX CVP-5468 which is very similar to mine except it doesn't support Non-Interlaced (NI) modes that the 5468NI can show.
I was able to run Resolve in DOSBOX and took some screenshots of listed repairs for the 5468.

However, it looks like Resolve 3.17 and above document the 5468NI.

It cost $249 back in the day..! The Internet Archive doesn't have anything newer than the freeware releases of Resolve 2. If anyone has Resolve 3.17 or greater, please let me know.

As for CTX, their service manuals were only $15 direct from them.

So I'm sure some old repair shops or people still have the schematics for this monitor. They just haven't been archived yet.
