Commodore PET Repair and Restore
About this video
A Commodore PET from the late 1970s gets its keyboard repaired, its screen brightened and its case cleaned by The 8-Bit Guy, who goes through each job in turn.
Good to know: The tube and flyback hold a high voltage charge after unplugging. A knocked or cracked tube can implode, so protect your eyes and never lift it by the neck. Mains voltage is inside the set. Cleaning products may be flammable.
Why watch it
Three jobs share one late 1970s PET, the keyboard, the screen brightness and the case, so it follows a whole machine through a restore, not one fault.
