What would cause both Horizontal and Vertical Deflection to Stop Working?
Witchboard:
Hmmm.. that's not good. I setup the chip on the monitor the way I read the description and flipped on the game. Looked the same to me, so I turned the horizontal hold one way, then back thinking maybe I just needed to tweak something. Then, the screen went dark... and didn't come back on. I could hear the high pitch of the monitor, but it looked like the heaters went out. This chassis is a nightmare. :-\ Next time I see a CAO chassis, I'm leaving it where it lay.
Ken Layton:
Hmmm....maybe at this point you should just order that Wei-ya replacement chassis for Electrohomes from Alva Amusements.
Witchboard:
I'm not one to give up. I just need a break from that particular chassis. I did check out Alva, but couldn't figure out which chassis I would need for replacement. I'm presuming the 820H or 814S. I'll keep them in mind, but it just kills me for this thing to get the best of me. ;D
Ken Layton:
The 820H is the one to order for your monitor.
Witchboard:
Thanks Ken. I'll look at that as a last resort. I feel the more I work at this the more I learn. First thing I'll do is maybe take the chip back out and see if the picture comes back. Maybe I burnt up the chip? Who knows. Maybe the thing just finally died. The tube isn't the best and I'm not sure if I want to drop $$ on a new replacement chassis for it. I have more time than money at the moment. ;D Thanks again for all the help. If I get the thing figured out I'll post up the results.
