Display on Monitor in my cabinet is green
Q*Bert_OP:
Hmm...
sounds like an edge connector(JAMMA) problem
1. Try cleaning the JAMMA connector
2. while the game is on wiggle the wires/connector, look for anything happening.

thanks qbert.
is it ok to wiggle the board whilst it's connected up and powered on?
what makes you think it's the board/connector? (i'm just interested)

Yes, it's ok to wiggle the connector as long as you dont take it off the board while the game is on.
also, I think it's the board/connector because I have hadeproblems similar to yours with dust/dirt being on the connector pins, or maybe there is a loose pin/bad solder connection on the JAMMA harness.

thanks again qbert. with any luck it'll be the jamma edge connector that needs a clean. i dont fancy trying to trace wires in the jamma harness

Why not? Just Google for the jamma pinout and you'll be able to find which wires are Red, GReen, Blue and Sync pretty quickly.
