Got an interesting issue. I have not pulled the chassis yet to inspect but wanted to out out a feeler to see if anyone has experienced this before. I have suspicions and it will definitely need caps as it has not been serviced previously.
Game boots and works fine. At certain random times the monitor will appear to go out, but if you look closely you can see some very dim parts of the image in blue. It also appears like the image is "blown out" like this, as in, the dim blue parts of the image are streaked like you have the contrast and brightness turned up high. I dont hear anything abnormal from the back when the monitor is like this, i see heater glow, and I don't smell any burning(thank god). **Power cycling the chassis (i have it set up currently with a switch, long story im not gonna get into it) while the game is on always fixes the image.
Again, I havent examined anything yet but just wanted to hear any quick thoughts. Probably a cap kit and reflow at minimum.
Thanks! I'll post a picture of it soon
