I've got an almost fully restored donkey kong where one of the only things left to do is fix this annoying wave. It's slight. Maybe 2 millimeters up and down (left and right if in standard position). It probably doesn't bother anyone but me.
I purchased the monitor a few weeks ago, and the person I purchased it from said that it was recently capped.
We live in an old apartment, so i thought that maybe that might be the problem. The multimeter says that there are 124v going into the cabinet (at the power cord...before the psu). Does that sound about right?
The B+ reads ~90v. So this seems to be the problem.
The B+ adjustment seems to be glued so I can't adjust it. Also, any tool recommendation to adjust it? It's kind of a pain to reach.
I replaced the fuse on the monitor, because i shorted it out. Didn't seem to make a difference.
Also, I assembled this machine from parts after the cabinet was painted. I'm not sure where all the green ground wire should be touching. Could this be the problem?
I'm new to old monitors. I could probably perform a cap kip, but I may need a walkthrough. I do have soldering skills.
