Title: Atari Centipede monitor help!
Post by: darticus on July 31, 2009, 05:39:03 pm
I could use some advice. I have an old Atari centipede cabaret game machine.
 Don't know if you will advise me but the game I bought last week died. The G07 19" monitor just stopped showing the pic and doesn't light up at the end of the picture tube. I checked it and it is get 120v to the monitor 2 wire plug. Any thing you could suggest? When I was shown the game it seemed to take a while to show the pic 4-5 mins. It did than work fine for a week at my place. Its a Atari Centipede cabaret game. My wife thinks she did it as she moved the game a foot but she didn't. Do I try a cap kit or find a new monitor? Maybe someone can tell me just where to kick it to get it working again. I really think eventually it could start up again. Thanks Ron

you should check for bad solder joints first and then follow one of the repair guides
