Need Help! PlayChoice monitors goes white after few secs.

I just picked up a free play choice and it's having a problem. When I thorn it on there is a loud screeching that comes from the little circuit board that is mounted to the side of the game board cage. It gets plugged in to the PSU.

I can play a game for about 60 seconds while the screeching is happening. Once the screeching stops the screens go white. Any ideas of what might be causing this? Do I need a new PSU or that little circuit board?

If so any idea where I can buy a new PSU? I bought on for a VS Mario before but can't remember where. Thanks!
 
Take that circuit board off the end of the cage, and now you can plug the same wiring into the board. Look close at it and you'll see what I mean.

It's just a filter board the gov 'ment made them put on there and is largely useless. Plug straight into the board, if you have the balls (I wouldn't lol) and see if the screeching goes away.

Seriously though, there's not much on that filter board, and I doubt that's the problem, probably much more likely that your power supply is dying. Since it's acting up, you'd probably be better off replacing it before you turn the game on again... it might spike and send too much power to the board (filter board installed or not).
