Title: Help with Pacman video Post by: Maverick on January 09, 2016, 04:36:48 pm My pacman recently began having a video problem in that the display is now a narrow strip down the middle of the screen. Is this a problem that can normally be fixed with a chassis cap kit?

Also i see a huge humbar, might be time to replace some filter caps. How bad do the filter caps look on the pacman pcb?

Is this something I can replace myself or do you recommend sending to you for service?

I've found the filtercaps on the game PCB can cause it and poor grounding can cause it. I recommend learning how to service the machines yourself if you are going to stick with the hobby.
