Monitor Gurus: Med res K7000- What the hell is this, and do I really need it.
Hey all,
I just picked up my new project/money pit Paperboy. The monitor is getting 130 volts from the isolation transformer, and she's dead as a hammer. So when I go to pull the chassis, I find something that I don't think I've come across before. Its a plastic block piece that has 3 wires coming out of it. 1 wire is ground and is bolted to the chassis frame above it. The other two goes from the monitor fly back to the white plastic connector that connects the neck board to the neck of the chassis. Thing is, this thing is spiced between the neck board and fly back and is heat shrink-ed. Not really sure what this thing is, but I have a sneaking suspicion it doesn't really need it and is just some safety device. The monitor is a 19K7600 med resolution. The picks of it are below. Anyone know what this thing is or does. And does the monitor need it to function. As it sits, I'm pretty sure I need a fly back among other things, and I hate the idea of having to spice anything between the fly back and monitor. Pics are below and your advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Sorry guys, I tried to upload a pick but it just ain't happening tonight. Damned computer.
