Picked up curbside Frogger. I checked the connections, added a new power cord and turned it on. Game works, playing blind, however the monitor is sizzling and throwing sparks from the neck or neck board. It's not really getting a glow. It is also sparking heavily from the tube to the springy thing wrapped around the back of the tube. I have been searching the forum but haunt found any conclusive answers. Maybe a grounding issue? flyback? Game definitely looks all original, I don't even think the back had ever been off. I have another 19 inch monitor, in my Aero fighters I may use if this is not a simply, read cheap fix. My allowance from my wife will only cover the cosmetic restoration, probably not a whole new monitor.
hopefully somebody knows what this problem is. I could upload a video of it tomorrow if needed. I pulled the neck board off and played multiple games blindly with no issues, so this mo itor problem seems to be the only issue. Please help!!
