Yesterday I managed to kill the neckboard of my blue tube when I forgot to connect one groung wire whose connector then touched something on the neckboard (nice spark) and made the blue tube go full on. Bad thing about it is that I probably won't find a spare part as Ampros are very rare in Europe. So can anyone guess which part on the card I probably killed?

Maybe I will... the blue tube isn't spotburned (deflection works fine) but it has a defect in the neck, so it needs to be replaced too. (the tube is out of a Barco btw !)

Thats why it has a defect, it came from a Barco. Twisted Evil

I was able to repair it myself, it was only the fuse on the board that burnt through. Still need a blue tube though Sad
