It is real hard to drive when there is nothing on the monitor.

I know the monitor works because I had it capped and tested and rejuvied.

Where and what do I do to test the boards.

Monitor is getting power. Tested that with meter.

Whats the next step?!!
 
ok lets back up..

Have you tested the monitor on another game to make sure it is fully working? or did you cap it test the tube abd assume its working?

When you turn up the coarse brightness adjustment on the monitor what happens?

Did this machine ever work or has it always been this way since youve owned it?

Is this a cockpit or upright?
 
the story of the game.....

Cockpit...

monitor worked but was fuzzy and dull. After getting the rest of the machine working I tried to cap it and it didn't work after that. I had a fellow KLOV member check it out and there were some bad solder joints and they got it fixed. I put it in and no picture, but there was power. A few months later I took it to another KLOV member to check while exchanging other machines. He checked it, adjusted it, and rejuved it. I saw it and it worked good, except for some screen burn. I put it back in and no picture. It still has power but no picture.
 
So the game is playing blind? Have you rechecked the voltages on the PCB lately?

I hate to ask this, but are you sure all the harness is hooked up? I know when I first got my compact Hard Drivin I was forever forgetting to hook up one thing or another.

If all these things check out, I would verify the boardset in another machine. I know, EASY to do! :)
 
I will have to check the voltages but I have everything hooked up correctly.

Anyone out there that can check the boardset?
 
You might want to try running cables to your gauntlet legends to see if you have a pcb problem or a monitor problem.. Both games are medium rez.
 
kbOjjn... I will be in the area thursday to monday. I can definetly bring the board set then. Just pm me with a time and details.

thanks
