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.

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....

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.

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......

If you get all three of the Wells-Gardner U5000 update (a.k.a. "service kit") kits installed then you wouldn't have so much problems with the monitor.

The U5000 model was replaced by the k7500 series.

www.niemandisplays.com sells an excellent 24.8" replacement monitor for the 25" U5000. His company is in Canada, but has USA distributors.

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.

 Just wanted to give KUDOS to Chad at
  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.
