Sorry I am so new to gaming and repairs, but I have a Ampliphone monitor in a game that appears to be playing blind and I need some help. I am not so technically inclined to do electrical stuff myself unless it's easy, so I either was hoping you guys could help me fix it OR tell me what I need to take to my repair guy so I'm not lugging this machine back and forth over and over again because I don't have the parts.
Upon reading things on this forum, it's apparent to me that the Ampliphone flybacks have problems, and that may be the first thing I need to replace. When the game fires up I don't hear any noises from the monitor nor do I see any dot or anything whatsoever (I think some have called it the dot of death, lol). NADA. Nothing. Looking at the HV board, the red light does come on on it. My HV board looks like this, can someone tell me if it's the original flyback?
What are the likely problems/fixes based on this info?
And if I need a new flyback, where can I get one and how much am I looking at?
Is there anything else I need to do to bulletproof a Ampliphone while I'm having this work done to it? WHat about the deflection board?
Thanks!
