Hi guys!
I need some help with my Asteroids monitor. Its not all dead... I have neck glow. Thats it.
I have searched the forums but no luck.
Played around with my multimeter and checked all the voltages on the regulator board.
Looks fine until i connect something to it. Doesnt matter if its the deflect or HV.
As soon as i connect something to it, pin 1 & 2 drops to 8v.
Unloaded its 28v. I checked the current going to the HV and its only 90mA (deflection not connected).
I replaced the zenerdoides (ZD100, ZD101) and the diodes (D100, D101) because they looked like crap. Reflowed all pins. Same problem.
What do you think?
