Ended up just going ahead and replacing it! The rest of the coil casing basically disintegrated up on removal lol All is good now! But good to know it seems it could have been left alone with little issues of no adjustment is required! Thanks everyone!

Got an Electrohome g07 all recapped and tuned up. Reinstalled it in a Ms Pacman only to find out the plastic casing of the horizontal width coil seems too have crumbled and finally cracked, The top part of the plastic casing as well as the screw that you adjust have come completely off...

A hulk? I'm not familiar with that term. You mean just like buying a parts machine? And dang Are the flybacks for these things really that unobtanium?

UPDATE! Taking a closer look at the machine, it turns out that there is in fact a direct connection from the flyback to the neck board. And under this wire is where I noticed the glow. On my most recent attempt to turn on the machine. It did not appear to Glow, but I could hear a faint ticking...

I'll DM you!

As for replacing the monitor, I want to see if I can try and fix the monitor before I go that route. I actually got this and one other machine for free (The latter of which I did actually get working and recapped). So I don't really have much to lose here. Just thought it would be cool if I...

I suppose cleaning it probably would be a good first step. I know that the flyback isn't directly connected to the neck board. I just suspected It could be related somehow since usually It seems that big Sparks are often related to the flyback.

I've got a Megatouch force machine that has a monitor that was working fine and clean until something started smelling of burning and I found that the monitor was sparking or at least glowing very brightly in the socket for the neckboard. The monitor model number is EC9387-01. I haven't fully...

Thanks for the advice! I made sure to do that! I recapped my g05 and everything went absolutely smoothly! All I had to Do in the end was turn the intensity up as at first it only looked like there were bullets showing and nothing else! Everything else seems absolutely fine!

I am currently planning on recapping my electrohome G05 from my asteroids cocktail arcade cabinet. I've been on a binge of recapping a bunch of stuff as preventative maintenance And this machine in particular is going to be borrowed for a duration of time where I won't be around. So I want this...

Hello KLOV: I recently managed to get my Nintendo Red Tent into ship shape working order and is currently in my house playing like a champ. Along the way to repairing it and getting replacement parts I was incredibly fortunate enough to procure a working spare Sharp XM-1801n monitor in really...

So as it turns out that tv I saw wasn't a 19" so I'm back to the drawing board. Anybody else for any clues for attempting to cap or repair this tv? Or by some chance a similarly old 19" tv for sale?

UPDATE! I installed that cap, but no change has occurred in the TV's functionality. I still get sound fine and the tv picture does change a bit when a signal is introduced, but nothing resembling a coherent picture. However, I may be in luck. A tv just popped up for sale locally that seems...

Just ordered this. I'll give that a shot

UPDATE: So after a bit of testing and fiddling around I have worked out that the TV is still playing the audio fine! Also, while I don't have anything resembling a cohesive picture, the tv image is responding to a video signal. The grey picture changes shape a d move differently when a video...

Are those particularly hard to procure? Also do I need to use an old school paper capacitor like in the original, or is there a modern equivalent I can use instead?

UPDATE! Alas still no signal from TV. I get a grey screen, but no video input or sound. It seems you have nearly the same TV as I do. I don't suppose you'd be willing to share that service manual would you?

Interesting! Now that I have a confirmed working board. I'm going to give the tv another chance. Especially since I now know that cap isn't necessary for it to function.

Hello KLOV: I am currently working on a Chicago Coin TV Ping Pong machine. A hardware clone of Pong. I've had it for a while and it up until recently had a working black and white TV modified to accept composite video through the UHF screws. I had the TV in storage for a few months separate...

Oh whoops. My bad! Normally I do try to do that, but I guess I wasn't thinking here. My apologies!
