Subject: VECTOR: wells 6100 help
> Hey guys,
> Need some help on a 6100. I just recently resurrected a 6100 by piecing together a complete unit. I did a cap/tran kit from arcadeshop and the monitor came up running. It looked good except for convergence and purity issues. So because of that I started tinkering with the adjustments heard a pop and the monitor went out. I think I discharged some body static. I found Q101 and Q100 opened on the deflection pcb. I replaced the two transistors and it came up running but for some reason on the top half of the screen the vector lines bend a little. Almost like a chinese version of american writing if that makes sense. Anyhow after swapping parts from a know good 6100 I have isolated the issue to the deflection board. Anyone out there know where I need to be looking or know where to start to fix this? Could I have damaged a cap? I'm half tempted to buy another arcadeshop kit and just do it over but I hate to waste the money if it's not necessary epecially if another part was dam!
aged that doesn't come in the kit.
check your work, it sounds like a cap may have blown.
if so then you may have put it in backwards, or it was crap.
if you put an electrolytic in backwards they will run hot and leak or burst.
