kortek 19 inch monitor interference with colors ct game

I have a 19 inch monitor in a ct game
kortek kt2001
its colors at the top of the screen are out of sync, a bit magnetized to top side

I have repeatedly hit it with a degausser coil, it only gets so good and still has same problem

I have moved speaker, no change

I have moved power supply no change

I have put a jumper between power sup and monitor frame no change

I even put a sheet of foil above the area of iso x former on chassis, on monitor tube under the grnd straps, this did not change anything either, problem is on the same side of tube as the iso x former in chassie

I rotated entire cabinet, problem does not change position even after rotation

when monitor is swung out of game cabinet, on the hinge, the problem goes away

game has a happ controls box style power supply and no iso for monitor

any idea's?

Something above the monitor is magnetized.
 
ct magnatized

ok as odd as this seems, it seems to be related to the cp's
I have never had happ monitors do this? is this just cause its a low end kortek?
as the game tube swings in place, it gets a bit magnetized on both ends from the metal in cp's ?

I am going to tie a ground between them and monitor chassie, and grnd see if this helps
 
run your degausser around the CP and any other suspect places.

it will degauss more than just the monitor.

if you have a screwdriver or other hand tool that you DO NOT want magnetized, just run your degausser over it and it will take it away.

monitor issue

even after grounding cp's, and degaussing them, the issue still persists
 
monitor colors

not a lose yolk,
I think its just a very sensitive monitor and cant have anything metal near it,
I am going to sell it for 200, to some one who may use it in a upright, with no metal near it, and put a vision pro in there
 
i guess one way to disprove my theory would be to turn it on in the same position but outside of the cocktail table. Sounds like a pain to do. I guess if it works fine in an upright cab then so be it.
 
monitor

when I swung the kortek out, it worked fine, as it settled in place it started to get out of whack
I put a vision pro in and the issue is gone, and the kortek works good out of the ct,
super sensitive monitor I guess
I also saw other posts with similar probs
