Golden Tee Question

Question from Brett: Hello, I bought my first arcade a few weeks ago, a Golden Tee 2K. I get the thing home, let it warm up in the house for a few hours and start it up. Everything works just fine for about 20 minutes. I can make it through about 9 holes and then the screen starts to get a little wavey. The colors start to turn white and then the screen will go fully white over about a 30-45 second span. I am completely new to arcades and trying to repair them but I would like to try to repair this myself, so any thoughts or help would be much appreciated. I pulled the back of the cabinet off to observe the components while the screen failed to see if there were any indicators as to what was failing. The only thing I notice, the glass bulb that plugs in the monitor (component that glows slightly red while screen is operating from current) the red glow starts to fade as the monitor is failing, as the glow completely goes out in the bulb when the monitor turns completely white. Thanks in advance for any insight you may have. Brett
