Hey guys, have noticed that my star wars dmd is not as bright as my other machines.

things i've done prior to try and fix this....

I had the power supply rebuilt by a tech and noticed no change.
I swapped the dmd with my other machines....no change. star wars dmd bright in other machines
I swapped the dmd board with other machines...no change
I installed a new ribbon cable...no change

When i first bought the machine it had a nice bright screen. this changed once i installed a red dmd cover....even though it was all put back together exactly how it was prior...

Is there something else i could check or look into? Its not a huge deal as the machine works, but it does bother me no matter how much i try to ignore it and its got me curious as to what it could be.

Anyone have any ideas please share them.

Thanks.

My other machines have the red covers on. Its a Star Wars only issue as like i said ive swapped many parts out from the other machines and Star Wars still stays dull.

yes they are cleaned. its got nothing to do with dmd covers etc dmds have been tested in this machine without any covers and still produce a duller dmd image than other machines.
