K4600 monitor help

Postby nvanvlymen » Thu May 28, 2020 5:07 pm

I have a WG 4600 that came out of a pacman I'm restoring. The monitor worked well two summers ago, then started to fail last year when half the monitor started fading away after turning it on.

I just finished doing a recap on the chassis and it did not help... what image does show ... the colours look fabulous now.

This is the only monitor I have and I don't have any spare tubs or daughter cards for the chassis.

Here's a link to see what's going on with the picture.

As you can see in the photos the monitor has more image showing after it's turned on, then after a couple of minutes the image starts to black out.

I've referenced a couple of documents to troubleshoot but nothing concrete to really go by with the symptoms that I'm getting.

I'm trying to keep this cabinet as original as possible, it still has an original working power supply and I am ordering a set of stencils that I'm going to build a silk screen from to do the artwork with.

Any help would be appreciated, I'm still fairly new at monitor work and I don't have a firm understanding of all the terminology.
