You are a Master Jedi Mike. Your videos are a fabulous reference that help a lot of folks fix a lot of arcade monitors. The biggest help for me personally has been learning how a chassis actually works and what parts do what task. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Hello Mike. I have been working my way through your repair videos while I work at my laptop! All good but I have a couple of questions: I notice you do not seem to use a dim bulb or variac, is that choice? Also, you do not appear to put any heat transfer compound onto any new components? Keep up the good work, very entertaining BR Mark
Yes. Never needed to use one with these types of monitors. As for the compound, it’s not completely necessary. When the chassis is working correctly, the components don’t run hot enough to require any compound, in my opinion. Thanks for watching!
The laugh of the socket on the neck board. Classic!

Do You Think The replaced resistor caused some over heating on that vert ic enough to make it eventually burn out ?
No. That resistor isn’t part of the vertical circuit.
