Is it the VGA only one or the one with s-vid?
I have had two of the VGA only ones and this has happened - one blue and the other yellow. I also noticed that if you shake the casing it sometimes clears the colors up. I now have the VGA Box and have had no problem.
vga only, it's on all screens, even on the system menu.
It's simply one of the RGB connections that fails to give a signal, resulting in one dominant colour onscreen. Depending on what colour is dominant it will be either R, G or B that fails to give a signal. Don't ask me which one of the connections is broken, I have no idea...
If you are handy with a soldering iron, open the box and disconnect and reconnect the R, G and B lines one at a time. If nothing changes, you have found the faulty line. See if there is a bad connection on that line anywhere. If not, try replacing the 220 µF cap on said line...
EDIT Looking at the image below I would think it's the the B (blue) line that is failing...
It's the one that leads to pin 3 on te D-sub connection. Third pin top row...
