Tales of my Windy2... Container lands in Montreal, rent a truck, me and some friends all go to pick our cabs up. Unload the unit in my house, dirty but not damaged.
Plug in the SNES with a scart to VGA to test out 15kHz mode, I get an image but geometry and severe color bleeding issue..
Clean the chassis nice and tidy.
Change all the caps. All of them. Careful with the bipolar caps, and even do the small surface mount ones.
Power it on, oh ! Very clean pixels, geometry way off.
Adjust geometry, try to get a nice square, some color convergence issue in one corner, no big deal..
Cool !! I can play now, so happy !
Power off the unit, do something, power it back on... No image. Power off again, on again, OK get an image this time, but I'm worried.
I go and test 31kHz mode, I get severe horizontal sync issue and figure some testing is in order, check online etc.
Power off, power on the next day, nothing. Power off, on, nothing. Screen doesn't come on.
Rest in peace, flyback transformer model TFB5078AD with no replacements.
