I need direction regarding my Sharp Image KTM-F2 monitor issues
I have a showcase Tekken 4 unit with an unhappy monitor. I believe it to be a 34" Sharp Image KTM-F2 based on the markings I have found. The symptoms are as follows: The screen is a bit dim, has a slight wobble, has very touchy sync, and most importantly, there is no green at all, and adjusting the pots have no affect. Also, the bottom right corner has distorted colors as if it needs to be degaussed. From what I have read in these forums, it sounds like a need to replace the capacitors, however, I cant seem to find a "cap kit" and am not fully convinced that, in itself would resolve my issues anyhow. I have never ventured into monitor repair, as it has always made me a bit uneasy, however, I can no longer avoid doing so, and need some sort of direction. Any input would be appreciated!
