Title: Double Diamond S2000 VFD dim
Post by: pinballfixer2 on May 27, 2022, 08:10:47 AM

The game still works but the display is barely readable.
Have a 2nd game with same VDF and works fine, so the problem is definitely on that pcb.
Has anyone attempt a repair of this board? suspected caps but seem to read ok in circuit.

For a correct measurement, the capacitor will need to be removed from the circuit.

Most people just go buy a replacement VFD....they're cheap enough.

I am sometimes amazed how much brighter the vfd gets by cleaning the display glass on the vfd and the inside of the reel glass.
