hi is it the 12" crt style
if so what is the name on the side

u see merit olny used 2 dif model's of crt style monitor's
in there mega touch :bar-top: game's
if it is a 19" standup style then that is a dif story..
as a rule on the 12" unit's
if u look at the heat sink on the :left: of the chassic where the power cord goe's in will be a fuse
see if it is open..ie multi meter and machine un-plugged
if that fuse is good then u have a few other problem's
also look on the ami/merit site for there bar top's stand up-'s
but again most time merit used 2 dif type's which ken layton covered in our monitor thread's
good luck
ring me if u need me

This model number you have posted doesn't do anything for me.  I am lazy, research sucks.

Is this game a countertop or an upright?

Is it a Megatouch 1-7, an XL, or a MAXX?

Regardless of game type, if all you have is a monitor problem you should still be able to play the game 'blind', that is, when you touch the screen you should get a response acknowledged by a sound.

If you have no game boot up you can tell if the monitor is good by watching the screen when you turn off the power.  It should quickly flash white.

I have never heard of a MEGATOUCH with a 12" monitor.

It is more like 15" measured DIAGONALLY not straight across.

So is it a COUNTERTOP or an UPRIGHT?

Is it a 1-7, an XL, or a MAXX?  

I just heard an echo coming from my computer.

Im pretty sure its a 13 inch crt heres a link of one exactly like the one i have http://cgi.ebay.com/MEGA-TOUCH-MODEL-G20-100-003-TOUCHSCREEN-VENDING-GAME-/350423952933?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5196e52e25 (http://cgi.ebay.com/MEGA-TOUCH-MODEL-G20-100-003-TOUCHSCREEN-VENDING-GAME-/350423952933?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5196e52e25)
Anyway ,fuses look good and the cliking sound comes from the flyback so im taking this chasis to the experts to see if they can fix it.
