<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I just got this monitor as part of a trade and
it's got a problem I'm sorta scratching my head over.&nbsp; I had a very similar
problem several years ago and can't quite remember how I fixed it
then.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>It's a Wells-Gardner 19K46xx-series
monitor.&nbsp; This one has the plug-in boards that connect to the main
PCB.&nbsp; The problem with this is, it won't start up.&nbsp; No high voltage,
no deflection, etc.&nbsp; The B+ line is much higher than it should be... say
about 165 volts, instead of 127 volts.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>The power-regulator board doesn't appear to have
any shorted or open transistors on it, but I'm wondering about a little
thermistor called TH501.&nbsp; I seem to recall that if this thing gets too high
in resistance, it will cause the power regulator to make the B+ go too high,
which causes the horizontal-drive circuitry to shut off.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Has anyone else run into something
similar?&nbsp; What should I look for?&nbsp; Open resistor elsewhere in the
monitor?&nbsp; Bad flyback?&nbsp; Bad thermistor?&nbsp; <BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Thanks!!!!&nbsp; I'm dying to get this monitor
up and running.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
