Once again, that didn't take long to figure out the problem. The board at the end of the neck is cracked right in twain. Didn't notice it before because there was a paper backing zip tied to it. I'd say this board isn't worth being fixed. Where might I get a replacement? Sticker on the tube says it's a Rauland 19VMJP22 and another sticker on the chassis say Victor Co of Japan model 38-G07904-KM Chassis G07CB0 |

I’ve seen many of them repaired with no issue, but if you want a new one.... https://www.twistywristarcade.com/monitor-components/1077-reproduction-go7-neckboard.html Do it!!! |

Oh wow, didn’t know repro neck boards were available for the GO7’s. I love those monitors. They’re pretty easy to repair. People say the K7000’s are easier, but out of the half dozen GO7’s I’ve repaired they seem to be consistent in how they fail. I agree with Yots, those pure blacks are vital for Centi. Keep it original if you have the energy to do so! :cheers: |
| blackace936:
At your suggestion I did try repairing the board, if it doesn't work I do have the reproduction as a fall back. I've never repaired a board before because I've never worked on anything with traces big enough to do so. My idea with LCD was power savings but I'm happy to keep it original. |
