Pop Culture Portal:
Yeah, I'm assuming I'm looking for male input "parts" since the dangling wires have female plugs...really weird.
EDIT: Added a topic over at the Monitor threads...
Mauzy:
Exactly. Usually it sticks out like a sore thumb. Maybe you're missing something. Honestly, I've never seen this monitor before.
Kevin Mullins:
That's a version of the Sanyo that does not have the inversion board. (which I don't believe you need by the looks of the chassis configuration)
The video input is marked with green arrows, follow that bundle of white wires back down towards the game pcb and show us what you have going on there.
It should all be tied in together with those dangling loose wires somehow. Those are a standard style connection, but that particular monitor does not accept them directly.
As for the monitor itself.....
Do you hear the static startup?
Does the neck of the tube have any glow?
Pop Culture Portal:
Here are close-ups of the wires:
There are actually two green wires; one goes to the PCB and the other goes to one of the disconnected female plugs (the larger of the two) that you can see in the first picture.
In the second picture, you can see the green wire go into the connection for the PCB. You can also see the red wire with a male plug coming out directly from the PCB.
The third picture just shows the PCB and the harness attached to it. The green wire ends there.
I hear no sound (except for the marquee light coming on) when the machine is turned on...no crackling, no humming. And I'm assuming the neck glow would be obvious...I don't see anything glowing.
Kevin Mullins:
I'm assuming the connectors I circled in green are tied into the connector I circled in red somehow.
Is that correct?
You need to check for AC power at the connector I pointed at with the red arrow.
That is what feeds the monitor power.
If the power is good there, then you'll have to move into the monitor repair side of things.
(and of course check for any fuses in the bottom of the cabinet as well if it's not good)
