Expert help for a newb
« on: April 07, 2003, 11:40:56 pm »
My Blitz arcade monitor just crapped out and won't come up.  I got it at an auction about 2 weeks ago and played it on and off for the first week and now the monitor won't come up.  The sound and controls are working with a blank screen.  HELP!  Ah man I had big plans to mame it and keep the original game intact.  It is a Wells K7500.  Anyone got any ideas or is there a tech in the SF Bay area?

First thing to do is check the fuses. That's the most common problem. If that's not it, check the wiring (both power and video).

I have checked the fuses and they don't look like they are blown and none of the wiring has come loose or anything like that.  Do you think I need a cap kit or is it more likely a power issue.  I am stumped.
