monitor identification question
« on: December 02, 2009, 11:40:06 am »
I just bought a slew of arcade cabs, and i need to rebuild most of the monitors.  Some of them ar WG and they are clearly labeled what cap kits i need.  However a lot of the newer monitors (from mortal kombat, pow, etc) are not clearly labeled on the chassis what they are.  Is there a way to tell what board i have that i am missing?  is there a visual guide somewhere that shows what chassis looks like what, etc?

The monitor ID sites listed in this thread will help:

This will help for Wells-Gardner monitors made within the last several years:
