Jack you mention u have an new audio board sourced? Will that be the 3rd audio board or am I reading it all wrong ( more than likely knowing me
)
Anyway if it is a new one that is working before you connect it up be 110% on the wiring , as if audio - neg is wired wrong it will blow the audio amp on the board.0 -

Oh no just a second one.
I've replaced the cable with a brand new one built for the midway audio boards specifically, so wiring should be 100%0 -

Yep been auto on any I've seen.. One I couldn't get to degauss properly even with a wand but after a couple of weeks of general use it came back guess the circut couldn't handle the state the screen was in

My Egret 3 arcade monitor all of a sudden has the display stretched out in the horizontal plane and I cant adjust it at all (The pincushion pot is also non responsive). All the other pots work fine and the display looks good apart from everything is stretched out.
I'm thinking perhaps the chassis needs some caps replaced, but maybe someone might have other thoughts here? Does anyone know if Greg still does the chassis work in the UK? Been a few years since I had him do anything for me.
I've done the basics of checking the cables and reseating everything on the control board and chassis, no change. Weird that just the end 2 pots stopped working.
Pots circled are non responsive.

I'm desperately trying to find another pin to replace it right away too. Hopefully something very nice comes my way. With England now gone it's now strictly mainland Europe and EU trade countries that are being searched
I wonder will Brexit inadvertently stop British colonial arcade collectors from stealing our Irish machines en mass? 0 -
She's alive !!!
Man this took a while to get working. Everything electric and electronic had something wrong . The Atari brick PSU had a bad big blue cap, fried rectifier, and blown fuses. The AR board was dead (the dreaded resistors and new caps and that round sensor chip ) . The board had corroded sockets and a dead CPU and roms with legs missing , the monitor needed a full recap, new bridge capacitor, fuses, a thorough cleaning of the high voltage diode connectors and a new anode cup ... not to mention rotted wood at the bottom and a layer of accumulated grease and dust goo from years of storage in either a chipper or a garage ... prob both0 -

It's restored well from original pics/video and looks great now, the boards sounded in a bad way but glad they could be revived, huge amount of work done.0 -

That's a bonafide restore job there, serious effort. I wouldn't be able to do a quarter of that stuff! Well done 0 -
