Cap chart for X68000 monitors

Post by kamiboy »

Before I bite the bullet I thought I'd try asking here as well:

Finally time to recap that CZ-602D monitor that I've got. I am thinking that since these machines have a pretty large enthusiast following in Japan there might exist an online capacitor chart/list for these monitors.

I really do not fancy pulling out the innards and going exploring in this thing with a magnifying glass. So buying the correct caps before I even begin would be ideal.

Anyone privy to a source for said information?

You are going to have to pull them when you recap anyways so just notate each caps location and value as you go then order those caps. Sometimes cap charts have errors

Making a cap chart is a pain in the ass though, and I am as lazy as they come. I should have capped this thing three years ago, but I kept putting it off out of sheer crippling laziness.

Besides, I am scared of making mistakes while making the chart, without a reference I'll be screwed if shit hits the fan.

Anywaste, I'll try to find a cap chart until that Faulty Marty I just bough gets here, because that once definitely needs new caps, and I figure I'll do both at the same time. Like a ménage a trois, only not as fun.
