Monitor Problems

pyrokilla · Mar 30, 2002

Well unless i tweek the setting every time i turn my cab on the very top of the screen kind of folds into itself, witch is annoying but the real problem is the screen is soo dark, i can only play at night with a pitch black living room, the contrast and brightness settings only distort the colors, do i need a tv repair man to check this out, is the monitor dead, or what? If i do need a new monitor how much do they go for? thanks, i will post some pics tommarow.

You need a cap kit, the electroes in the vertical drive stage have dried out.

You can increase the "brightness" by turning up the screen voltage, thats the pot below the focus control on the lfbt, If your not sure get someone else who is to do it, there are very high voltages around there.

If you don't know if you can install a cap kit yourself, then you need someone else to do it!

However, if you own or work with arcade games you really should learn a little bit about safety including discharging the crt.
