WTB Ceronix XX92h chassis board

[tomterlec]

Looking for working Ceronix XX92h chassis board for IGT PE+. Let me know if you have one.

A few years ago you could get a 1492 monitor quite easily but they suddenly become scarce. Have you reached out directly to any of the sponsor businesses? Press the home link at top left of page.
If you strike out I have two boards but I don’t know if one or both work. It will take me a few weeks to get a CRT out of storage to test them.
Have you done an essential cap kit and checked the HOT? These boards are unique in many ways but they can usually be repaired pretty easily.

Chris, I appreciate the comments. I’ve had zero success with monitor repairs, 2 failures in the past year. I have not tried to recap it yet, the picture on this monitor is so weak you can barely see anything. So I’m thinking along with other issues the fly back may be bad? By far this is the worst monitor I’ve seen since I started with slot machines.

I’ve reached out to NLG, K-Lar and multiple other slot repair shops in LV and no luck finding anything. I continue to check, I will try a few of the other sponsors listed here too.

If you can possibly check your monitors, I’d appreciate it.

I might have one. Let me look tonight when I get home.

Hmmm, dim picture? Not sure I would be confident in it being the flyback. The best option is certainly to plug another board in but it could be the CRT too. Swapping boards is not the cheapest option. These Flybacks are no longer available so a working board could run $100 or more. I know I won’t part for one less than that. I found a flyback awhile back and they wanted over $100 just for flyback. Maybe one of us could look at your board.

Thank you!

I’d be more than willing to have someone look at it! I don’t rule out the crt could be bad too.

Let’s see what SMOOTHGRH has to say. Shipping 2 ways has a cost too.

Capos should take care of it unless te guns in your tube are weak which would be rare, I would say with 99.999999% certainty caps will bring it back. if you dont feel comfy doing the caps send me the chassis I can do it for you

[smoothgrh]

Crap. Sorry, I have a Ceronix Model XX93.

(says E8 at the end if that makes a difference.)

Thanks for checking, much appreciated! I don’t know the difference between 92 and 93 but I’m betting it won’t work.

I can do a cap kit but based on what I’m seeing with the monitor makes me believe something else may be wrong as well.

[/quote] caps need to be first even if something else is wrong you won’t know how the chassis is functioning with compromised caps

I'm unable to find a schematic or parts list that is specific for XX92h, documents in download section only reference 1492, same at Ceronix. Would the caps be the same or could there be differences? Perhaps the "h" only references the jumpers are IGT?

Pull the chassis and look at the caps and see what you need to get to make sure you get enough of each value

[Chris-socal]

There is a vital cap kit available on eBay. I am pretty sure it’s the same as 1492, as that is the board that was in all of my 1492 monitors. I would check the flyback brightness setting too, turn it up a little at a time when powered off. If it is arcing you wouldn’t want your fingers to be the path.

Thank you, I’ll give that a try after cap kit.

I’ve ordered the cap kit but I thought I’d try adjusting fly back brightness. It helped, I can now see the image. As you can see it’s a mess, not sure what else may be causing this in addition to caps.

You risk doing damage to it trying to adjust out a problem that has a cause somewhere else. Until the caps are all fresh I would not touch it.

Understood, I won't do anything further until caps are changed.
