Title: Hantarex Polo 28" repair question
Post by: gahrling on March 21, 2016, 08:13:34 am

Hey, newly registered user here with what's probably a noob question :)

I'm trying to repair a Point Blank arcade cabinet, the problem is that the game is playing blind (clicking noise, no neck-glow). I've gone through all the troubleshooting phases and replaced the relevant diodes, HOT, and repaired some damage to the PCB, so the only other thing that could be causing the problem is the Flyback transformer.

My question: can I replace the Polo flyback with any type of flyback that would fit or does it need to be a very specific type?

Looking forward to getting this thing up and running again!

Hey, thanks for the reply!

I've been to Bob Roberts website, he has the kit I need but unfortunately he does not accept orders from outside the US or Canada. I'm based in the UK and struggling to find a European vendor that isn't sold out :(

Be careful buying hr7191 flybacks,there are loads of bad ones on the market
chad at arcadecup has the correct/good flybacks for these and he ships to u.k

Thanks for the tip, however they have been sold out of the flyback I need for a while now (HR7191).

I genuinely have no idea what to do at this point because everywhere I find that ships to the UK is out of stock : /

I have indeed. Even though the item is listed as in stock they are actually on back order for an indefinite amount of time according to their sales person.
