To clarify to all the other useless responses, your monitor IS colour, and
the push-on/push-off switch under the front flap on the right-hand-side is
to switch the colour on and off. I think "out" is colour and "in" is B/W,
but mine's broken so I can't recall. Also make sure the colour knob is
turned up (3rd knob from left at front turned clockwise). Also some earlier
IIe's have a colour-kill switch inside on the motherboard. Make sure it's
correct. If it's still not producing colour, there is most likely a problem
with the monitor or your IIe. Try a different IIe or Monitor if you have
one, or see if can you get colour through a VCR or NTSC TV with RCA VIDEO IN
from your IIe.
Forget all the stuff on different inputs, plugs & cables vs Amiga etc., YOUR
Colour Composite Monitor only has one RCA socket on the back which goes to
the only RCA socket on your IIe. Easy, no chance of getting that wrong.
