I have a rebranded sharp image/Kortek monitor. NO model number on the chassis but it is the "tan" board for a 27" tube.
I recently capped the chassis due to vertical issues. After adjustments the monitor looked great. I started to play a few games on the monitor and after it warms up, (roughly 20 minutes) the pic gets much darker, shrinks in height by 10%, and begins to wiggle (significantly) side to side like jello. This happens instantly - like flipping a switch.
I shut the monitor off immediately. I can turn it back on and the pic is fine initially but it will go back to the "wiggles" shortly after.
The monitor has an automatic degauss coil which I suspected was intermittenly degaussing. I disconnected the coil and the problem is still present. When the chassis was out for the cap kit I reflowed any questionable solder joints (but I didn't do them all)
Any ideas where to start? Thanks for your time.
