Electrohome G07 monitor question?
« on: May 08, 2003, 07:59:45 pm »
Just got an arcade monitor, think it's a Electrohome G07?  Anyway, the monitor works just the picture is squished down to about 3 inches wide down the middle of the screen and I can't adjust it.  The monitor is mounted Vertically and its already been recapped by the previous owner.  So, from reading a lot of  message boards, it sounds like a Vertical Deflection transistor problem, but I'm just guessing?  Does this sound correct and if so, is this a hard or expensive problem to fix?

Thanks!

transistors are cheap and easy. I replaced the vertical output transistors on one of my monitors. I just unsoldered them, took one to the tv shop and picked up a couple of replacements (like $4 each).
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Yeh, you may want to replace the vertical output transistors if you have already done a cap kit.
