Title: WG 7203
Post by: kardenm on October 29, 2014, 10:17:49 am
Need some suggestions. 

I have two WG 19K7203 monitors Which work fine except they will not turn on the first time I apply power (I can hear HV but no picture).
The picture always comes up when I turn the power off and back on again.

I have already checked several capacitors but no luck yet.
Any suggestions on where to start looking would be greatly appreciated!

This is exactly the signs of a cap going bad.

Instead of just "checking a few", just "replace them all" and be done with.

Thanks, but... 
That's A LOT of caps (x2).  If I could narrow it down to a particular section that would be most helpful!

Order from mouser, get them cheaper than buying kits.

Take your time, no need to rush through it.
