This is my 2nd monitor that I had capped. Before I cap it. It would power up and shows no picture and it has wave style. I decided to order Bobs Cap Kit and Cap Kit throughout today.

After Cap and I had ensure all looks good.

I powers it up and there is no picture NOTHING ZIPPO!. I checked neck and it does glows orange!. I wondered why s that? I tried to find bright pot to contrast so i can see if monitor shows it s on. Then i ll target to video pin out due to swap to different Cab.

Any cents would be appreciated!.

Thanks in advance
 
I've said this alot, after capping it is very common to need to readjust some of the controls.

On a 4600 series monitor, if you got the capkit from either Bob Roberts or Zanen Electronics, there should be a brand new "black level" control trimpot to install. Did you install it? If so, did you adjust it as it will need to be adjusted?
 
i found the pot where i forgot to adjust and finally now it shows WHITE!. like im in heaven!!..

Cabinet was plugged into G07 CBO and worked!. I decided to swap to K4600 to this cab instead of GO7 and move G07 to pacman.

Video Pinout seem same.. so i plugged and it shows all white!> HINT HINT pls thanks

At first no! (GUILT AS CHARGED) =). I went ahead and pull out the daughter board and replace the pot and I though it s still good. I WAS VERY WRONG! and by replacing them IT WORKS now!!! and it shows perfect picture!!! WHEW thanks kenlayton and Tron Guy on the side!!.. You both kept saying. CHECK THAT BLACK LEVEL POT! lol. Ya guys the expert!

New issue.

1. I noticed the picture layout is being off. I try to shrink the vertical size and it show picture s more way left and not being centered.

2. There is no Horiz Size? However it s way downsized compared to centerized!

P.s. Picture looks cloudy cuz of flashes in picture but it shows the black border size better compared to no flash!!


Did you replace the black level control I mentioned?
