I have a california speed and when I power it on it plays great for about 10 to 15 minutes and then there is a spark a pop and the monitor goes black but the game continues to play. I power the game off for 10 minutes and then power back on and the monitor comes on just fine and works for another 10 to 15 minutes and its back to the black screen. I did see a spark one time it did it I happen to have the back off but I wasn't looking directly at it when it sparked but the spark looked like it came from the neck in front of the neck board but im not 100% sure.

The red wire from the fly back was laying across the neck so I moved it now everything works fine. I think it was shorting.
