High voltage problem in Midway cabinet (MK2 to NFL Blitz)
Got this Blitz in that was once an MK2. The 3 amp fuse was blown on the power brick. replaced it, fired it up, monitor shoots fire out of the HV section (Polo, what do you expect).
I remembered reading a thread recently about how all Midway cabs were wired wrong from the factory... something screwy with the 120 line. I put my meter on the 120V, and I'm getting 137V! Yeesh.
Is that what ultimately caused the monitor to fry (other than it is a cheap Italian POS), and how do I fix it?
Thanks,
-Mike
