Hey Team,

I've got a Hantarex MTC-9110 that I just finished recapping. The monitor fires up, but I'm noticing some color distortion on the top right and left edges of the screen. The degauss PTC is definitely shot and needs replacing. I understand I can use a degaussing wand or ring, but I am in the process of troubleshooting and restoring the cabinet to UMK3.

The original degauss part is a Philips PTC 2322.662.96011 (110/220v). The number on the pop-top/lid of mine is 96013 PH9027, but I can't track down a suitable replacement. I followed this thread where the OP swapped in a Sincera DGC3R14M / 950503:

The problem is, the Sincera parts are ridiculously overpriced, and I feel like there has to be a more reasonable alternative.

So my question is—what's the best move from here? Stick with that substitute, hunt down an equivalent part, or is there a practical workaround? I have a Sharp Image chassis but it uses the two leg disc type thermistor.

Here's the service manual for reference:

Thanks for any advice!
