Battlezone Deflection PCB

(1/6) > >>

HaRuMaN:
I just got around to pulling the deflection PCB out of my Battlezone, and I noticed that someone has done something to it.  Looks like they cut off R100 and R101 and just bridged each of those with a thick wire.

Anyone know what resistors those are supposed to be?  I'm going blind looking at a schematic...

Also... can the board be run as-is (missing R100 and R101)?

Also.  How can you tell if the bridge rectifier is bad or not?  I have a new one, regardless.

Kevin Mullins:
Resistors removed - common field modification, it's fine.

Rectifier - standard diode test x 4 

HaRuMaN:
How do you do a diode test?  I'm guessing just make sure current flows only one way, and not the other?

lilshawn:
diode test = set volt meter to diode test


sick probes on either side of diode (you may have to remove one side of diode from the board to get a good result)

should be a reading one direction - around 0.5 volts
reversing the leads should result in nothing

HaRuMaN:
Oh, duh.  I have a HP 34401A Multmeter.  I just now noticed the Diode test setting (it's Cont + Shift), lol.

Looks like this:
