Title: WMS 360 Monitor Problem - advice welcomed.
Post by: Bettor Slots on January 12, 2009, 01:42:06 PM
I have a WMS 360 slant top where if I turn the machine off for a week or so and then turn it back on, the game starts up properly but I get no image on the monitor.  I can insert a bill and play the game without an image but what's the fun in that.  :96-  I have learned that if I let it run for a while, and then slide the monitor in and out of it's socket a few times it does finally turn on.  The image flickers and vibrates for awhile, maybe a minute, and then finally works as it should.

 :103- Is this a monitor going bad problem, power supply, or connection issue?

Thanks,

Jim S

Should just be a recap job on the monitor chassis.

The issue usually is the secondary power section on main board.

You probably have one of those krystals or however you spell it.  Like the other guy said, probably needs a cap kit.  There were 2 caps in those chassis that I had trouble with.

 :79- I've decided to upgrade to an LCD when the funds are available.  Anybody want to buy a "repairable" 19" 360 CRT....lets see...how about $500 for it which is about what I need for the new monitor...  :97-
