[misc.misc] ibm_system 6/452

I have a IBM Systems 6/452 information word processor.
Recently the light in the monitor went blank, and I am
unable to use this machine, although the printer and
processor still work.  The system is around 10 years old.
I was worring if anyone out in netland could answer a few
questions?

I am wondering if the light going out on the monitor is a
common problem. If so, how might I attempt to repair the monitor
myself?

Who manufactured the display monitor for this IBM 6/452
office system?  Could you please provide the name and address
of this company?

Also, I am thinking about salvaging the printer to use with
a IBM clone any suggestions how might this be done?

Any info would be helpful.
