I have a 6100 that is kicking my *ss. The monitor works fine with a different deflection board so it is not the game board, the T-03 transistors, the HV or the neck board. It is definitely the deflection board.
Spot killer comes on when I power up the game and remains on. If I crank up the brightness, only the bottom 1/2 of the Star Wars image shows. So, I'm thinking it is something in the Y section. I have a "normal sized" image that fills the screen from left to right but disappears at mid screen. I have checked every single component in the Y section but haven't found anything bad. I have pulled every transistor in the Y section and some in the X and checked it out of circuit. I have checked the connector for continuity and breaks and found none. I checked all the voltages with the game board inputs powered off and did not find anything out of the ordinary.
Googling for this problem led me to a post by somebody named Potts with the exact same issue but he never followed up with a solution. Maybe I have his chassis.
Any ideas?
