Getting this monitor this far was a victory in itself. Bought it untested from a local collector in a vertical frame. After a day worth of work it is transplanted over to a kindly donated horizontal frame. At first power up no smoke, and I got a scrambled picture. Cool! All normal connections were beefed up with new solder. It needs a cap kit.

I thought it odd that the card had a new cap on it and a new adjustment pot. Now I know why, I guess.

I've been reading and it seems the easiest fix for a bad card is to swap it out with another. Is there a diagnosis thread I'm missing?
 
Yes tried all adjustment knobs. The buddy that gave me the horizontal frame thought I might run into a bad card. I even got my handy splitter that I have to use for G07's to get them to sync, and no luck.

My machine of choice for bench testing is playing Golden Axe right now.

EDIT: FIXED!!!! Forgot about the metal box pot adjustment referenced here:

Now I just need a cap kit
