What picture do you get if you press the green button on the monitor (IIRC it works by killing the blue and red channels, so it might give a clue as the problem is with the green signal).

Also, SCART cables for the BBC usual contain resistors to reduce the TTL 5V signal to 1Vp-p analogue RGB. I suspect these aren't needed on the A500 (since it should output an analogue signal anyway?)…

Hi Thanks for getting in touch, the green screen is green all the writing & Icons are like embossed onto the screen A bit like the BBC on flat screen with wrong lead, I cannot get a decent picture of it as it comes out green with black but the black is not there looking at it, I have re soldered the resistors to the motherboard that looked a bit dodgy when I cleaned it but it was the same without them, scart plug image attached.
