Hi guys, I'm having some weird issues with the Nanao MS8-26 monitor from one of my two Sega Aero City cabinets, they were brought kind of "as-is" so I don't know its previous background or have any warranty, just to put things a bit in context, what I can tell is:
-When I got the cabinet home just some days ago it was working just fine as it should.
-3 Days after (where I used it 1 hour max in total), the monitor didn't want to turn on!, when turning on the machine sound from the game came out but no image or anything in the screen, not even the usual hi-pitched sound CRTs produce when on.
-But the day after that it did power on! just doing a weird thing the first 30seconds after turning it on (would like to know if there is a proper name for it), and then works kind of okay. That is how it currently works

Just when I stopped recording, the image from the monitor stopped rolling.
Screenshot of that video (Ignore the ceiling reflection):
Does anybody know what is the name of the rolling image with lines issue? And why it does self correct 30 secs after power on?
Also what should I do if the monitor tomorrow decides not to turn on just like yesterday?
Appreciate any input about this, thank you!
Notes: I am owing cleaning and changing the capacitors of the monitor, does somebody know where I can source a list of them? Also have no experience disconnecting that CRT suction cup to separate the chassis, I am a digital "low voltage" electronics guy, but nobody's gonna repair the monitor for me so I must overcome my fears lol and dive into new depths of knowledge
Note2: I am very suspicious that some guy from the auction house "repaired" or did something to the arcade the day prior to the auction, because they told me it wasn't going to be auctioned because it wasn't working and they were going to repair it, but the day after that it was advertised as working and was auctioned, so that gives me a bad feeling.
