So the other night, my wife is in the basement playing Phraze Craze. Has a K4800 monitor with a pretty decent picture on it. All of a sudden, the brightness goes up, picture gets blurry, and colors start bleeding; I'm next to her watching this happen. Not quite sure what's going on, I switch the game off. I wait five minutes, and turn it back on. Game is now playing blind. I have neck glow and the high voltage is obviously there as I get the usual CRT static sound when I turn it on. But no picture. Not even a faint image. I ordered a cap kit as from the looks of it, no one has touched this monitor in over 30 years, but this seems like more than caps. Anyone seen this before? The symptoms prior to it not working have me concerned that the tube took a shit. Thanks.
