Title: Centipede monitor fadeout Post by: skipn56 on April 08, 2012, 01:30:56 PM After running for 2-3 minutes. the screen fades out. First game with limited electronics knowledge. Fly transformer or possibly caps problem?

I'd check for cracked solder around the flyback and on the neckboard. Something is happening to the voltages going to the tube.

I would also check for cold solder joints on the chassis and especially the neck board. |
