Astro City monitor squealing

[Arcade-Projects]

Hi everyone,

My Astro City's monitor recently developed a strange noise. It makes a squealing sound at a very high pitch but it only last for a few seconds. Then it'll come back. I don't think it's capacitor related, not that it couldn't use a re-cap but the image looks normal.

I did some googleing and came across this thread. forum.arcadeotaku.com/viewtopic.php?t=26922 - I'm not sure if that's what I'm dealing with or not.

I uploaded a video to youtube so you can hear the sound it's making. This recording isn't too bad of an example but I have heard it much worse in the past. You might need to use headphones to make the sound out. Sorry.




I haven't used the arcade since, but if you'd like me to take another video to get better sound or do anything else please let me know.

Thanks!
