Arcade CRT Tube Swap and Rejuvenation (25" WG K7000)

74XX Arcade Repair 7 min Published Feb 2022

About this video

A Goldstar consumer tube goes into the 25 inch WG K7000 monitor of a CPS2 cabinet, and because that tube is dim the maker then tries rejuvenating it.

Good to know: The tube and flyback hold a high voltage charge after unplugging. A knocked or cracked tube can implode, so protect your eyes and never lift it by the neck. Mains voltage is inside the set as well.

Why watch it

The maker calls fitting a random consumer tube a matter of luck, and it turns out dim, so the swap leads straight into an attempt to rejuvenate it with electricity.
