I recently acquired an Astro City cab with Nanao MS9 monitor. Everything seems to be working fine most of the time, but every so often, the monitor will not turn on when I flip the power switch inside the cab on. I can plug in a PCB and get sound and everything but video. Usually a little wire wiggling takes care of it, then it's good again. Is there a certain component I can check? The monitor looks and works great when it's on and I haven't had any issues with it once it turns on yet, bu I'd like to see if I could get rid of this issue before it becomes more of a problem.

I had that issue with mine. It turned out to be the connection to the remote board. There's a flat ribbon cable going from the monitor to the control board. I reflowed the solder to the connections on both ends.
