I think it is the one that is out of stock that I need for the 19v1001 monitor :(.

I'm still struggling on this one - if it is a board problem, I'm not sure where to look/test. For the Big cap (4 caps in 1) on the chassis - I searched around for info - all I could find were the types/sizes of the replacement caps (using 4 individual caps), however, I didn't see the...

Relative to background color - I am guessing that the fluorescent tube was replaced with a plain white tube rather than a white-black light. No errors during the Braze self test (system indicates tests are ok). The monitor showed the same weirdness with the original game ROM (before I...

Here's a picture of the screen during one of the tests - basically a screen grid. Any further guidance is appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks jungleking and creepykenny. I'll poke around the system a little. I can also re-install the original ROMs in the event that the Braze kit doesn't have a test feature. I appreciate the guidance and I'll update the thread if/when I have any info from doing a screen test.

I don't have a crafty mech, nor another b/w machine. I have a Ms. Pac/Galaga and a Defender :), but that is it. Maybe a board problem as suggested by security00001? Thank you.

Thank you for the feedback - I appreciate it. I can find my way around boards and do simple repairs but this will be challenging...

I have a Space Invaders game. Everything works. Cap kit just installed (new cap kit did not make a difference). The problem is that images on approximately 1/2 of the screen as washed out or not fully showing. I'm really not sure what to look for to try to fix the problem. Any ideas and...

mecha - I've got a lot of learning to do! Thanks for the info and guidance. I really appreciate it.

re: adjusting pots - that might be a recipe for disaster for me. Seems like there are a number of pots on the board, etc. I haven't located the place to test b+ yet - I'm guessing there is a test point but I don't see it in the schematics and I don't have a board layout diagram. I will...

screen knob - I haven't touched the knobs - was hoping the replacement was "plug n play". Will do so. Will also research how to get a DMM reading of B+ (never done that before - learning new things :)). Thank you.

Hi Paul. Thanks for the reply. I plugged it in and turned it on. The whine/hum is gone although I do hear "power" going to the monitor. I don't get any neck glow. And, the game plays blind and I can't get it to show up even after rebooting (unlike before, I was able to get it to work...

WG7203 / P819 Flyback playing blind issue; flyback install question Hi. Big time noobie here. I know my way around pinball machines, but not video games. I have a Ms Pac/Galaga reunion game that would play blind when first starting it up. If I would reboot it after a minute of it being on...
