Question from Shane: hi,

I recently got an arcade machine. it’s LAI cabinet that has a 60in1 gameboard in it. monitor is mounted vertically.

the picture has 2 things happening to it from what I can tell.

1. the image has a slight wave along the bottom that slowly moves a tiny bit up and down. and the top right seems to be pulling the image up toward it. as if someone’s grab the corner of the image and pulling it toward them.

2. the colours look like something out of the 70’s across the whole screen. that get worse toward the right side of the screen. with a noticeable red tinge area down that whole side. towards the bottom left side there is an area that seems to have the correct colour in it.

(locations of what I described were looking at it in the vertical position.)

I had a friend help replace some capacitors that had leaked and that he thought required replacing.

we plugged the chassis back in and as we were trying to adjust some pots to see if they made any difference. he changed the image so it started squeezing in from the sides and one of the capacitors blew up..

I wanted to double check what the problems could be before we try too much more

I would appreciate any advice.

I really enjoy your YouTube videos and podcast,

thanks
Shane
