Gauntlet monitor not being fed power from transformer
yes this may well be a transformer issue...
interested parties can read my ramblings on the machine as a whole here...

this thread has kind of dried up though (i suppose my posts were getting pretty un-clear!) so Ive decided to do much more research...
However, one thing is for certain... there doesnt appear to be any power coming from the terminal on the transformer chassis up to the monitor... (i dont know how to properly test a transformer)
However, the game pcb IS receiving power (the red led lights up)...
Does anyone know what voltage the monitor is expecting?? as I am planning to feed it voltage from another source..
Any advice or warnings on this appreciated....
