Neotec NT-1431 (Medalist Dart Star monitor) pin cushion issues
I just finished recapping the 14" Neotec NT-1431 VGA monitor that's in my Medalist Spectrum Genesis dart board. I used KenLayton's document as my guide (https://www.arcade-museum.com/manual...ir guide.pdf)
I replaced all of the electrolytic caps Ken listed, including the filter cap. I also replaced the 4 "problem" resistors that were mentioned.
Everything works great, except I'm now getting some serious pin cushion issues. I basically get the hourglass shape on all 4 sides. The pin cushion POT doesn't do anything. I checked the POT and it tests fine and the solder is good. All other controls function properly.
Are therer perhaps some other caps that need to be replaced?
Thoughts?
Thanks!
