Space Duel Blooming...Where is the HV Diode in this thing???
I bought a space duel that was blooming. I transported it, and now the monitor just has a line down the center. I checked all the connectors on the defection board like you suggested. No luck.
I wanted to replace the HV Diode like I did on my asteroids machine. I just opened the Asteroids HV cage on the Sanyo monitor, and the HV diode was inline with the anode cap like a fuse. I just replace the HV diode and it fixed the blooming on Asteroids.
I opened the hv cage on the space duel, and no HV diode. I think it is a wells 6100 like my tempest. Where is the HV diode? I cannot find it to replace. I figure this would be the first step in the fix because I know it bloomed bad before I transported it. I have an extra HV cage from a start wars well conversion that I can rob parts from, but I cannot find HV diode in either cage, just a flyback.
Thanks,
Rick
