Hi all. I've got a 1978 space invaders cocktail table. All worked fine except when it decided to let off a bang from inside. There was no smoke or any burning smell coming from the machine. When it fires up the sound and play mode seems to be working fine but there is no picture at all. The bottom of the monitor shows a small amount of light but that's it. Somebody suggested that it might be a capacitor issue. As i'm not a teckie I'm not too sure where to start. Any clues will be appreciated.
 
Well I'd start by posting in the monitor repair forum.
Then I would pull the monitor chassis and look for bad caps, and do a cap kit while I'm at it.
