>Hi everyone, I just recently finished my Asteroids project which involved my first G05 rebuild and it turned out great and is working fine. I had collected enough parts to put another G05 together and have run across a problem that I hope someone else has had in the past. The problem is with the brightness. With the brightness and contrast turned up all the way you can see only the flying saucer and its fire. You cannot see your ship or any asteroids. The brightness control has no effect but the contrast will turn the brightness down. I know the problem is in the deflection board because I took the one out of my working G05 and installed it in this one and the picture looks great. I have re soldered all the connector pins, replaced one of the wire wound resistors which was fried and replaced the bridge rectifier, the one with the heat sink between the two wire wound resistors which I believe was bad. If anyone has any ideas I su! re would appreciate them. Also I am going to trade this monitor to someone tha
t has an Asteroids Deluxe and was wondering if you need to make any modifications to the monitor to flip the screen or is that done on the AD wiring harness?
