Kevin,

 

 The first thing I tried was the pots on the deflection board. I didn’t try
the pots on the board set itself. I did recap the deflection and HV boards
about 10 yrs ago. I was going to start with recapping first along with
reflowing the connections.

Without seeing it, I'm just going to be guesing, but on mine this is
generally caused by the pots on the SW board. The X-Y adjustements. You may
try moving the pots back an forth a few times to help make a better
connection?

Kind of both directions up and down and left and right. I recapped the

resoldering the connectors. I will try to get a video today. But it did’t
look like the vector lines were moving but that the whole picture was
jumping.

A video would sure help. Could you describe how it jumps (left-right/up-down
or other way)?

I have a Star Wars upright with a Amplifone monitor. It has a wintron HV
installed and had worked great for many years. It has been sitting for a
about a year without being played.

 

 I turned it on to play a few games and the picture came up and looked great
but after a few seconds the picture began jumping around and getting shaky.
After about 5-10 minutes it stopped moving around and looked great again.
Then after a few more minutes it started jumping around again.

 

 Can you guys give me a suggestion on where to start looking.

 

Thanks in advance for any help/

 

Frank
