I dont think this is a monitor issue..19k4900 fuse keeps blowing
I have a Joust with a 4900 monitor....and it has been delux recapped and worked fine for the last 2 years....the game was hardly played any to be honest but none the less, it worked like a charm....last weekend i finished my mancave/arcade...I moved Joust into it turned it on, fuse blew (4a 250v)....so i replaced fuse...blew gain...replaced it...blew again..THEN i replaced the 4900 board with another one, turned game on..it blew the fuse...
I figured i dislodged something when i moved the game but everything seems in tact..
So if two different boards are having the same issue then what within the game internal parts would make fuses keep blowing?
i have 129.6 going into the monitor chassis......the b+ is good on both...and getting no errors on the main pcb...it has a switching power supply
