68 Ohm resistor. If it goes out you will have vertical collapse.

Wow. My monitor has vertical collapse! I mean I have a donor chassis and a cap kit. This may just force me to do some repairs!...

This is that small white rectangular ceramic resistor right? by the heat sink?
 
???

What's the RXXX? I don't remember this but, that's not a suprise! :D I was thinking of working on these monitors again tonight. My next question is, does it have to be the part that was listed earlier in this discussion or just a 68ohm resistor with the same wattage? Hmmm....looks like I have some more snooping to do.
 
It's a FRxxx number (for Fusible Resistor). I can't remember off the top of my head. It's very obvious - it's one of the few wirewound ceramic resistors on the whole chassis. It's right by the vertical IC heatsink.
 
Let me guess...the only place to get these is from Bob Roberts? I'm sure he's great and all but, sending checks sucks ass! XD I haven't written a check in......years.
 
That's why I'm trying to find out if the one on the Mouser site is okay. I /think/ it is. Once I find out I'll purchase a bunch, and I'll have them on my site.
 
Checked the resistor, it was fine. I'm really starting to think that the IC501 is out. Also, what's to prevent it from frying again? The manual says that if the voltage exceeds 120V then X701 will cause pin 11 to short to ground. Could this possible be the voltage regulator that's causing the problem. I'm getting 177V thru one side and 167V on the other side. Even when I adjust the B+ it doesn't change. Could this be due to the shorted IC?
 
Honestly...I don't remember. I think I did but, I'm not for sure. I'm thinking I did because I followed this:

I'm thinking I did the same thing that this repair tutorial is showing (as far as checking the Regulator and HOT). I'll check them both again tonight. I just replaced the HOT when I did the cap kit and i checked it to make sure it wasn't shorted to the chassis. I don't know.
 
Success! I went ahead and replaced the voltage regulator, HOT, X901 & IC501. It was either the X901 or IC501. Pretty sure it was the IC though. I tested the old X901 and it seemed like it was ok. I had also tested the monitor with just swapping out the voltage reg. and HOT and it still didn't power up so it was one of the last two items and I'm leaning towards the IC. So anyway, the monitor is up and working and everything looks great! I posted a quick video if anyone is interested. Now that everything is functional I decided to go ahead and strip the cabinet and work on the cosmetic restoration.

Here's the link if you're interested. PM me if you are really interested in seeing my out-of-focus restoration progress pictures. :) Thanks for all the help guys!
