no neck glow and horizontal collapse Just sharing my experience repairing a wg k7000 (558) that took a bit to fix as finding info was a little difficult to pinpoint the problem. Monitor was dead, no neck glow. pulled d10, still dead. had good 130v. this is where finding info was difficult for...

Sent you a PM beterthnyu I have a Punisher cab that was converted to golden tee, so the cp is destroyed...everything else is mia. But the cab is in perfect shape. I'd love to get a hold of this stuff to start the restore and get the art scanned for everyone! Please let me know if this is still...

Meph, the monitor glass measures 26-15/16 X 22-9/16 Your cab came out looking really nice! What t molding did you use?

CE and Punisher cabs I've joined the club! Picked up an original SF2CE dynamo big blue cabinet. Even has the strange Street Fighter 3 dynamo label that I've read others have also found. Also got what I had thought was going to be a big blue converted to Golden Tee, but turned out to be...

Ok I'm with you now on the hookup, but I'm not picturing the ffb driver working correctly with the outrun system unless you write your own drivers to trigger a constant voltage to the motor when the ffb signals an event. Basically you need to know how the ffb controls the motor. Does it just...

Oh, if that's what he's planning than that isn't going to work right. Like D_Zoot said, Outrun has a rumble setup, where the entire steering unit is on a slider and the motor is connected via an arm to push and pull the steering unit from side to side. It has nothing to do with the rotation of...

Sounds like a big project getting that wheel to fit into the cabinet, plus the outrun wheel is pretty heavy duty...i haven';t seen a ffb wheel that comes close to it. I'd be afraid that it may break given the cabinet's standup configuration, which lets someone easily put a lot of stress on the...

Hey Joearcade, nice to see someone else taking on this project! I'm going to have to look through my system to get specifics, and I'm sick so my brain is not firing on all cylinders, but basically I compiled mame (v139 i think) with segaorun.c file from here...

ya the insulator is there. it's in the pic but hard to see with the thermal compound over it. Now it has burn holes through it so I need to replace it..what's a replacement for that? I checked the resistors and the diodes upstream of the IC..haven't checked the mega cap. Could downstream...

K7000 P538 Chassis blowing voltage regulator (IC4)?! K7000 P538 older chassis with STR3130 IC4 I capped the chassis and hooked it up to find the vertical size was huge and could not adjust to fit the screen properly. Read a bunch of technical bulletins and threads that pointed to the voltage...

so just to put closure on this, although with a bit of mystery, it is working great now, but I didn't do anything else to it. I had played it a bit w the random vert hold loss then shut it down. I turned it on again later that night and it looked good and was steady. for the past 2 days i've...

Yep, playing w the v-hold, size, etc. .. i have been brave and stuck my hand in there to wiggle all the plugs to the chassis and neck board, including the video input plug, and saw no change. So I left the machine running for about an hour and the picture has stabilized for the most part; it's...

Well I'm close. I had some success resoldering things, but the problem is still there, just much less frequent, and typically just looses sync, not going into full v-collapse. I addressed the yoke plug by reflowing all of the leads and redoing the solder on the vert yellow wire pin Checked...

I reflowed the v-hold pot but there was no change. I did not hit the vertical ic nor the yoke. I'll give those a try when I get home from work. I'd guess the yoke solder would be more likely since i had to remove that part from the tube versus the IC. I don't know which chip is the IC; the...

Problem - Vertical hold is unstable, picture jumps from steady to a hor. line and back Capped monitor to regain color and brightness, picture was just dull and dark. Had no problems prior to capping. Used a BR kit. All was good, so I thought. It brought back the colors and contrast in the...
