F18A issue

I'm having a little trouble with my F18A modded ColecoVision. The white color is more bluish and the colors are a little muted. After playing for a bit they sometimes will correct itself, and possibly go back to the bluish hue. I'm thinking that it's a solder issue to the vga connector. Does anyone have any information as to what exactly is happening and how to fix? I will open it up later today after I get done with work and see what's happening in the inside.

I have seen the VGA ribbon cable fail and cause color issues. I do not have any more myself, but they can be purchased here:

Unless your system is in a humid or damp environment, I'm pretty sure the problem is not the soldering of the VGA header on the F18A.

 

I got the new cable and just installed it now. Everything works perfectly! Thank you for your help.
