All done, not that difficult after all, just needed to be methodical; problem(s) identified. 
Tracked down every wire and what it does. There are two dodgy ones at the multiplug for the video interface box. No wonder it didn't work. 
1. The known broken one. This is the "Video-on" signal to the RNS (and the on-the-move override allegedly  ).
2. The Green of RGB - hence the purple picture, just red and blue!
The green one is open-circuit, but I stripped back a bit of insulation only a few mm from the plug and that is fine, so it's probably just the termination that's at fault.
Now I need to get those critters out of the plug!
