Ok so I'm still cleaning the shed out. Found some monitor chasis that I've had for awhile. Total count is 3. Below I've copied a post from months ago regarding the functionality and the issues I'm dealing with. The machine is no longer an issue, so I'll just unload these monitor chassis to whomever wants to fix them. Asking $35 shipped in the US.
original post:
I have two 25" WG chassis that are "switchable" for cga and ega. Came from a cruisin, WG. I started with vertical deflection problems. Capped it, and still had collapse. Came home and I read about an additional kit you can buy from wells to fix the issue. Bought it, installed, still had collapse. Gave up. Picked up another CGA/EGA locally that supposedly worked. Took it up there, it does work, true, but it only displays blue. I know it's not the tube, because I can see other colors on the screen with the vertical collapse chasis. Reflowed some solder to the drive transistors on the neckboard, but that didn't help. Again, gave up. I figured between the two, it'll work, but I am no longer inclined. I also have a third monitor chasis this is also a WG25K550 (or something like that) but it isn't switchable like the formerly mentioned two. It doesn't appear to even power up, though the fuses are good. I read on the internet that there is a rebuild for the PS section, but I laugh at the thought, since this is my first attempt to ever work on 25 inch stuff, or medium resolution, etc.
$35 shipped for the 3 together. As is (described above).
Thanks,
Brett
