Hey guys, just snagged a never before used 7302 in hopes of replacing my bad electrohome monitor for my galaga 3, (this will be my first monitor swap) and the connectors are completely different. Do I need to get ahold of some adapter cords, or what? Thanks in advance for your help! -Jason
 
What's different? If I remember correctly, only the power connector would be different, and you can adapt that fairly easily with a new Molex housing to match what's in the cab...
 
I know the power is. let's see pics of your connectors from your cab, and where they should be connected on your monitor...

Looks standard to me. The larger connector is for your video colors and the 3 pin connector goes to your sync connector.
 
Got my adapter from Bob Roberts, super fast! That guy is awesome. One more question. Im sure its a stupid one, but being my first monitor swap, I have to ask, my picture is reversed, everything is backwards, Im sure this is prolly a setting with the monitor, but how do I swap it?
 
Small thing: I cant seem to get the pic right on the top and bottom. Ive got controls to raise or lower the screen, but not both at the same time. Its just a tad too big on top and bottom. Any suggestions I may have overlooked?

I'd need to see a pic to see if you are referring to height, width, pincushion, keystoning, etc...

Now it just sounds like you need to adj. your v. size pot. That will reduce the top and bottom at same time.
 
Yeah, its just the top and bottom, but heres the problem, this seems to be the only monitor I own that doesnt have a width coil. Its simply not there....anyone have any experience with this particular wg model?
 
The Horizontal width adjustment for the K7300 is VR401. Find R417 and R420. the width adjustment should be between them...
