I ordered parts from The Real Bob Roberts (great place to order parts!)
I have a Wells Gardner K7000 series (horizontal, landscape). It's in the Dynamo Z-Back arcade cabinet for the X-Men vs. Streetfighter arcade game. Currently, the game fires up, you can hear the sounds, but the CRT appears to be dead.
First, I replaced just the flyback transformer. Plugged everything in. Nothing, not even a buzz or hum from the CRT. Dead as a doornail.
Next, I replaced the fuse. Plugged everything and *flash*, the fuse blew. OK, so I got a short somewhere...
Next, I replaced every capacitor that came in the cap kit. Put in a new fuse. Plugged everything. Surprisingly, I got a crackle then buzz or hum from the CRT. But on the screen, nothing. I read somewhere that I should see an orange glow in the neck tube. Also nothing.
I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?
