Help identify and troubleshoot a monitor please?
« on: July 04, 2014, 11:46:06 am »
Model:
Pertronic

Game:
ATARI Rush the Rock (driving game)

Size:
25"?

Symptoms:
No neck glow

Troubleshooting:
Game plays blind
110VAC is measured at the input
Fuse tests as good
Flyback appears to have orange "glue" around 1 of the seams.

There were no other markings at all to be found. I wish I had more info to go on.

So, my questions are: What chassis is this? And would a bad flyback cause the monitor to not turn on AT ALL?

a picture is worth a thousand words
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

Thanks ed.

I was also asking a close friend, and he came to the same conclusion, it being a CH-288.

So there we have it! Its, a CH-288.

So, whats wrong with it???

nope chk the daughter board
it is the fet  for the power supply...
Troubleshooting:
Game plays blind
110VAC is measured at the input
Fuse tests as good
Flyback appears to have orange "glue" around 1 of the seams.

There were no other markings at all to be found. I wish I had more info to go on.

So, my questions are: What chassis is this? And would a bad flyback cause the monitor to not turn on AT ALL?
<

u have to remove the heat sink around the flyback to see the chassic #

your welcome

there is crip notes here.
there is slow start cap that need's to be replaced and a resistor on that daughter board
also the fet is an old ball.. will give u a more ready one
once i look up my crip notes
