rrr... got my monitor working... for a week... now?

[Lilwolf]

I have a 27" EYGO monitor.  I had to fix the horizontal pot and brightness pot a week+ ago.  Got the new pots, replaced them... everything worked great...

Then I left my cabinet on over night a week later... and now no monitor... just a little quiet click noise...  The screen doesn't get any static.   Anyone have a clue where to look?

I'm starting to think I need a new monitor... but I'm out of cash at the moment

Eygo has been out of business about 7 years now. They were the USA distributor of Wei-ya monitors with an Eygo decal on them. Your monitor could be ten years old and as such, it probably needs a capkit and possibly a horizontal output transistor.

I didn't think a capkit would make it so no power was going to the screen and a clicky noise.

I happened to have a capkit I've been putting off installing.  I guess I have a plan of attack. 

I'm not sure where / what the horizontal output transistor is though.  Are they easy to test?  I don't have any schematics which sucks. 

And yeah, I bought it 5 years ago, second hand.  So I know its probably at its end.  And normally it wouldn't be that big a deal, but where I work is talking outsourcing, so I'm not supposed to be spending money.  Just sucks because I've been playing a lot since I got the monitor fixed again and a new computer inside... I was just getting the cab bug and blam... 

And thanks again.
