Hello all!,

This is my first restoration, atleast of a video game cabinet. I worked at CEC for a while as a Technical Manager, as well as have a love for all arcade machine. I currently work at Techshop Detroit and get to play with all kinds of fancy snazzy equipment.

I found this cabinet on Craigslist, it was listed as a "american horseshoes". It has been pretty well beat up, but not the worst for its age. It only had a few edges missing, but the original control panel was gone, it had thick house paint mixed with years of cigarette smoke over everything. However it had a working monitor, and most of the original parts including serial tag.

Problem with monitor

After I replaced the Capacitors on the Board the monitor no longer works correctly, it has a few horizontal white lines, as well as rendering the images in little dashes across the screen that looks like static but is the correct colors to match the image that supposed to be Displayed. I will post a picture later, has anyone had this problem before ?

Have you tried adjusting the horizontal sync/hold/freq on the monitor?
