Title: GO7-FBO Flyback Post by: PassivePac-Man on September 10, 2016, 09:41:54 pm I have a Ms. Pac-Man cabaret with a 13" GO7-FBO in it. The monitor doesn't always work, and when it does, it takes 10-15 minutes to turn on, then it's solid until unplugged. I installed a full cap kit in it and same problem. I bought a new flyback and the old one doesn't want to come out of my chassis. What's the secret to getting the flyback out of this chassis? Am I missing something?

Even one pin still soldered will hold that thing in. Gently try to wiggle. Use the iron and touch some points to see if one is hanging up. Be careful not to pull a trace. Also- you may have a couple connections still soldered. A lot of people will de-solder the "horseshoe" of the flyback and forget the 2 on the side.

But I still couldn't get it so I had my neighbor who works with soldering all the time and he was able to get it out for me. Monitor fires up immediately now! But I'm having troubles adjusting the picture. None of the pots on the chassis will make the picture get taller. Is this normal or am I missing a pot? |
