Man I think I blew this one big time. I had an Area 51 with a u2000 that had a tube shatter. I replaced it with a k7000 I had just rebuilt and was gonna deal with the u2000 tube swap later. Game played fine for a couple months then I sold it to a guy 2000 miles away.
He get's it and the monitor is dead. I have him snap some pics and was like WTF..the 110 out of the PS is plugged directly into the monitor! Well...I should say directly from the Black\white\Green plug coming form the Area 51 PS. I'm assuming this doesn't have a built in ISO So then I started thinking I don't remember seeing an ISO in the Area 51.
So a couple questions..
Did the u2000 NOT use an ISO?
If that's the case according to Fromm's flow chart...he makes no mention of blowing anything other that the fuse if the k7000 is ran without an ISO.
The guy I'm working with has zero electronics experience but very willing to get his hands dirty. I'm thinking about sending him a pre-wired ISO and some replacement fuses. Or should I expect more damage to the k7000? He's willing to pull the monitor...I'd rather not to that route if possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
