Title: Monitor problem
Post by: ZORK2 on March 26, 2009, 08:52:51 pm

I picked up a Simpson's cabinate today. I tested it before I bought it, it ran fine all the way around. Brought it home fired it up, ran fine for about an hour. I went it to eat dinner and left the machine running, came out about a half hour later, the game was running, but the monitor had NO picture!! I looked through the monitor electronics and discovered that the little slow-blow 2A fuse was blown. I replaced it with a regular 2A fuse and fired it up. The fuse blew instantly. I
looked everything over and there was no obvious signs of a short anywhere that I could see? Is there anything that could be causing that fuse to blow repeatedly!?
 PLEASE HELP!!
