Default Tektronix 545 oscilloscope fault.(revisiting)

Hi all I'm revising this because Iv kind of got some life out of it now here is the original post I put up in 2015....



Tektronix 545 Oscilloscope fault
Hi all,
hope your all ok, I have this Tektronix 545 Oscilloscope that a friend gave me,

so i did try it out and did get a very bright green dot appear so seemed all good but then sort of vanished!! now i just get a sort of green smudge on the screen that moves about a bit when adjusting some of the knobs. I'm guessing some caps need changing could someone tell me where to start as there is a lot of stuff in this scope..

So I tryed it again today in a new house and to my suprise it almost works!! but I can't seem to get any signal on the screen when I put a test signal from my generator on any part of it need help maybe setting it up? If someone can tell me how? Here some photos....

Thanks

Dave.
