No, no, no, checking fuses is done WITH NO POWER CONNECTED, but at the fuse _holders_.

This way, you will also know if the contact between fuse and fuseholder is OK.

Gotcha...all fuses still beep while in the holder.

Does anyone have a picture/guide as to how the harness connects into the monitor?

EDIT:  Damn...this is a Sanyo 20-EZY monitor, not a GO7.  It says on the chassis:

MODEL NO. 20 EZY
MANUFACTURED APRIL 1982
CRT TYPE
51OUTB22

Level42:
Great monitor IMHO but I bet the G07 chassis won't work on that one.

We _are_ talking about an Atari Dig Dug right ? If so probably not factory.

Pop Culture Portal:
Yup, Atari Dig Dug...I'll post lots of pictures momentarily.

I can always use spare parts like the GO7.

You can get false positives checking fuses still in the circuit.

I actually did it both ways and got "beeps" all around.  Finally the photos:

The monitor:



Cracks in the monitor board can be seen in the upper corner:



There are four dangling wires not connected to anything, but I don't see where they might go.  One looks like a ground wire, two are coming off of the monitor wires/harness, and the fourth is a wire coming directly from the PCB.  The red wire from the PCB can be seen in the second picture near the top right of the picture:





Do these help?
