Title: Newbie Here............ Post by: Lancester on March 09, 2009, 12:04:51 PM Probably get flamed for this but are there any wells gardner board repairers out there that have a decent turnaround & do quality worK? I have a U5000 & a 7000 series needing repaired.
Also, can anyone reccomend a good replacement 25" monitor for an older 'cruisin' USA"? I'm really tired of trying to keep the u 50000 based one's I have running... Thanks. Title: Re: Newbie Here............ Post by: jay on March 09, 2009, 01:22:39 PM Hi Lancaster, and welcome aboard.
Sorry to disappoint you but we don't flame people on this forum. Cool pic.... I don't know about Wells Grdner but Certronix has a exchange program. The best I have to offer would be some manuals but it sounds like you are already waist deep in repairs..... I am sure some of those more versed in monitor repair will jump in shortly....

Post by: channelmaniac on March 09, 2009, 08:13:49 PM I'm not sure about board members here, but there's a board member of one of the arcade forums I hang on that does good monitor repair work.
His name is Chad and www.arcadecup.com is his site. Title: Re: Newbie Here............ Post by: Lancester on March 11, 2009, 08:54:56 PM Thanks for the link. His prices are a bit high, but it looks like his turnaround is good & it does include return shipping. If he does quality work, it will be worth the price......

The U5000 model was replaced by the k7500 series. www.niemandisplays.com (http://www.niemandisplays.com) sells an excellent 24.8" replacement monitor for the 25" U5000. His company is in Canada, but has USA distributors. Title: Re: Newbie Here............ Post by: pinballfixer2 on March 23, 2009, 01:27:53 PM I do Monitor repairs as well. My prices are similar to arcadecup.com , but I am farther behind than he is, so I would suggest to give him a call. I am totally swamped with repairs, so currently I am 4-6 weeks backlogged.

www.arcadecup.com He fixed 2 of my OLD Wells Gardner monitors that no one else would/could fix (not even Wells Gardner). Wish I had found him before I trasher 12 or more of those oldies and spend $175 ea for Korteks. |
