Someone can repair a 1084s monitor?

Hello all!

Well as the subject says. I have a 1084s monitor that stopped working a few years ago. A friend and I were playing and it just made a crack sound and that was it. Now that I am reviewing all my Amiga stuff, when turn it on it just makes kind of the same crack noise and nothing else.

I have limited skills with electronics. I know how to discharge it, I can replace parts, but I know absolutely nothing about how to diagnose the failure.

So, I am considering sending it to be repaired with someone with proper skill and knowledge. I know Indivision cards are great and I have one of them, but I really like the image on those monitors.

I have tried looking for someone here in Mexico but I can only find TV technicians who almost laugh at me when I tell them this is not a flat screen TV

So... I'm afraid the cost will be high or even prohibitive but it is worth asking anyway. Does anyone know someone who could do this job? Preferably in the US.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you very much for the answers

I'll search now in those high voltage terms, good advice!

I hope to find someone soon. If not local, at least at a reasonable driving distance.

Hello and thanks a lot!

Great! Good to know those parts are available. I think I can do the cleaning / visual inspection / fuse test. As long as I don't have to mess with it while it is both open and turned on 

Thanks again everyone!
