1991 Simpsons Game Arcade Cabinet
Question from Darren: I was hoping you guys could help me out. I recently purchased the Simpsons arcade game from Konami made in 1991. I got a great deal and the cabinet is really in need of some tlc. Your videos have been a great help, but I am having issues with the monitor. The monitor is very faded/ washed out, with a solid black bar at the bottom. I am thinking a cap kit will fix it but I am unable to find one. The only thing I can find is that it is a 25 inch zenith monitor inside. Would you guys happen to know what kit I could get, or have one you could sell me? What would be the cost involved in sending you the chasis? I am pretty confident in my skills but am really just getting into wiring and all. Also when I turn on the monitor I get a popping and cracking sound from the chasis.
Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Darren

Response from Tim: Darren,
the zenith you are seeing is the tube, the chassis will be something else. Go here http://www.therealbobroberts.net/monitor.html and look at the various pics and see if you can find it or send me a pic and I will help you determine what monitor chassis you have and what cap kit you need. We charge $75 to cap one if its just caps and not the flyback.
Hope that helps
Tim
