Hi
I need your help
I have a MTC 9110 who has a very sensitive vertical hold.
A small video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYC_rwhe3kQ
I am able to get the picture to lock vertical, but it stays only for a short time, and if i turn the power off the picture is rolling or has shifted a bit so that it is not longer in center
Trying to solve this issue, i have done:
1. changed nearly all the electrolytic caps, except C24 and C205 (I did not have these in my parts boxes, but the old one tested OK)
2. changed the vertical freq pot (no diffrence)
3. tried to put in a 5k resistor between gnd and vertical sync (no difference at all)
When the picture is not locked vertical i got red lines across the screen, but they disapeer when i get the picture to hold, and become stable.
What can cause my picture to be so sensitive to the vertical hold?
Can it be the IC1 TDA1675A that causes the issue?
The manual for the chassis is found here: http://www.arcade-museum.com/manuals-monitors/Hantarex%20MTC9110%2025in%20and%2028in%20Color%20Monitor.pdf

Hi

But it is still very very sensitive... so I will keep you updated :D

Hi
Just an update
The other day the screen began to roll again :banghead:
The all mighty chassis repair guy ->grantspain :notworthy: told me that only the h-sync needs to be connected.
So i checked my connections.. and also the v-sync where connected...
So removed the v-sync and now the vertical adjustment pot is not sensitive any more and it holds the sync :cheers:

Registered just to reply, after all these years, THANK YOU. Was going nuts over exactly the same issue. Applied your fix and it worked like a charm!
