Not on Bob Roberts site that I can see. Sorry for the lousy I-Phone pics. I can see its a Wells Gardner but cant find the model anywhere. This is in a PGA Tour golf game. Problem is the monitor gets dim and will occasionally go bright again. All brightness, contrast and RGB gain is up all the way, and it has an on screen menu which dosent seem to get dim like the rest of it, which makes me wonder if the issue is elsewhere. The focus/screen pots on the flyback make little to no difference.

Any ideas?

This is a WG D9200. It has a known issue with brightness caused by problems with the memory. Start by trying a factory reset of the memory. Hold down the DOWN and SEL buttons on the remote. This will bring up the Factory Menu. Then choose RE to do a memory recall. Then turn the brightness and color settings up. Then exit to the normal menu and adjust the brightness and color to where you like them.

Hopefully that work. If not, move on to a cap kit. There are about 92 caps total. Bob Roberts, Zanen and WG all sell cap kits for it, but none are complete kits. I think WG's kit is the most complete. I have the entire cap list posted here somewhere, if you want to make your own kit...
