Hey, just bought a Street Fighter 2: Turbo Hyper Fighting. The one issue is the monitor flickers. What could this be?

There's a black box on the chassis with a dial on it and it has a crack, sparks are shooting out of it which is causing it to flicker. Any idea what that is?

That black box sounds like the flyback. it will need to be replaced. It's an easy fix if you buy the right one for your monitor and you observe proper safety precautions. All you need is to know the model number of your monitor and then just start looking online, most flybacks can still be found easily.
I probably don't have to tell you not to keep running your game until you repair it. Broken flybacks can be very dangerous to people or electronics nearby.

know anyone who has replaced a flyback in a HS-Dynamo cabinet. Lots of guys on KLOV have done these sort of repairs, they have a whole section just on monitor repairs there, see here http://forums.arcade-museum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=43 Even if you can't post on there (I can't) you can still find info related to your monitor on there. What is important here isn't the cabinet type, that's because several types of monitors may be used in a given cabinet style, or even swapped over the years, what you need to know is the monitor model number, If you can get that I may be able to point you in the right direction for parts/information. From my research, there is a good chance it has a Wells Gardner brand monitor of some type as those were commonly used in Dynamo cabs. Also, if you are uncomfortable doing the repair yourself there are lots of people online offering repair services for these.

Zenith? 25" i had it turned on while looking at the back and sparks are shooting out of the crack and every time a spark shoots out the game flickers..i have turned it off unplugged it. here are some pics. i cannot seem to find out what kind of chassis this is,.

The Marquee looks as though someone got beat one to many times from M.Bison and hit their breaking point . I am pleased to have this machine, it was my absolute favorite game in an arcade.

I am pleased to have this machine, it was my absolute favorite game in an arcade. great looking machine. all those complete details are fantastic. i've seen a few machines with the control panel yellow like that I wonder why that is. looks like the buttons were changed. you should put the original red white and blue ones in. i've seen those marquees for sale on ebay at market price, and here is a link to a high res one you can take to a printer and have them print/cut it for you: http://segamadebaddecisions.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/street-fighter-2-champion-edition-turbo-hyper-fighting-marquee-psd.jpglooks like one of your coin door lights is out fix that with the little bulb. thanks for posting!
