Star Wars Episode I
Williams, 1999I have a Star Wars Ep1 that has a Ducksan monitor in it. The monitor didn't have any red in it...then a couple months later, the only color it would show is Blue.
I'm sure a couple transistors on the neckboard crapped out...but I can't find any data on this monitor.
I need to know which transistors drive which color on the neckboard. I'm capable enough to replace them...I just need to know what part number, and where they are.
Has anyone been through this before?
Pete
Did you see this thread? There is a monitor repair guide for the Ducksan monitor attached in there:

I had the same problem. It was cold solder joints on the neck board. That was 3 months ago and it gets used a lot, still going strong.
Quoted from cal50:Pete-you have mail
If the color guns are working its likely a neck transistor.

Where did you send the mail? Because...it didn't come to me.
I'm thinking it is a neck transistor, too...but can't figure out if it is Q401, Q402 or Q403. I should probably just replace them all...if I can figure out the type.
(I tested them, and they all seem okay..didn't see any cracked solder joints, either).
