Title: Red Tent Monitor XM-1801N
Post by: newthing34 on May 02, 2016, 11:44:18 am
I am getting no picture
the monitor had 2 bad resistors R436 & R439, Replaced them, then the flyback shorted through the housing on to the metal shield of the flyback. Replaced the flyback still no picture.
I get static on the tube, checked the brightness (nothing)
Can someone tell me what to try next?

Thank you John & Guss
