I hope that M is a typo.
Morning!
It is, 610k or 0.6M :)

You might check the contrast control.
I can't find the actual schematic for the contrast control connections, but I 'm
guessing the ends are connected across 12V (video board pins 5 & 1/4/10) and the wiper
to video board pin 8.
The contrast control can be expected to take pin 8 somewhere + to get pixels fully on.
You?re right with pin 8, tracing the circuit I can see why someone recommended I check
Q101 and Q102 which look OK in my tester.
The contrast control itself tests OK resistance wise, it goes from pretty much 0ohms to
610M.
