Hi there,
The monitor in my Paperboy went out the other day--my back was turned, and when I looked back the screen was black. I powered down the machine, checked AC to the monitor (which was good), then pulled the monitor. The fuse on the chassis was blown, and according to some flow charts I found this usually means a bad HOT or (rarely) a bad flyback.
I picked up a new cap kit, flyback, fuse and HOT from Bob Roberts, and installed them. I'm not getting any neck glow, but the fuse is holding. I checked the HOT that I removed, and it is good.
So...shotgunning this thing didn't solve my issue. Any recommendations on what to check next?
Thanks!
