Hey everyone. Here is the detailed overview of the Commodore 1702 CRT. This monitor was fully recapped. I have lots of links in the video description, but here is the link to the tested and approved cap kit list: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z2vD3TnsgyT85OchvXCqcQAKOHwNpbpsHcWXIxGjyTw/edit?usp=sharing

Restoring a Commodore CRT Monitor 1702 - Featuring Commodore Video! | The Perfect C64 Display.

In this episode I do a complete restoration on Commodore 1702 CRT Monitor from 1984. This vintage video monitor was purchased by my client and then mailed directly to me from an eBay seller. This CRT needs to have all the electrolytic capacitors replaced. I will need to create a custom capacitor kit. Please join me as I future-proof this lovely piece of vintage computer hardware. #RetroTech #CRT #commodore64 For more information on repairs, diagnostics and to connect with me, please visit: https://www.patreon.com/retrotechUSA Link to Cap Kit List: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z2vD3TnsgyT85OchvXCqcQAKOHwNpbpsHcWXIxGjyTw/edit?usp=sharing Mouser Order for Kit (may need to adjust for backstock): https://www.mouser.com/ProjectManager/ProjectDetail.aspx?AccessID=9f663ce0dc Commodore 1702 Video 1 - Unboxing and Initial Checks: https://youtu.be/NVNOUc1ANk0 Commodore 1701 Repair Video: https://youtu.be/BIjyIVCY6vg The Best 240P CRT calibration suite: http://junkerhq.net/xrgb/index.php?title=240p_test_suite Black RTV Silicone: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BWZ1RSK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_9.V8FbHSC0GJ4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Dielectric Grease: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000AL2RI2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_ZaW8FbE8CN13C Intro ( 0:00 ) Commodore CRT Teardown ( 1:24 ) Internal Inspection & Hardware Information ( 1:55 ) Circuit board overview & restoration plan ( 5:03 ) De-solder / remove old capacitors ( 6:13 ) New Capacitor Kit Overview & Installation ( 9:04 ) Monitor Re-Assembly ( 10:29 ) IC/Chip Hardware Information for Video Signal ( 10:43 ) Power & Performance Testing ( 12:08 ) CRT Calibration Techniques & Methods - ( 13:38 ) Commodore Video / S-Video Testing ( 14:44 ) Commodore Video Switch Issue & Fix ( 15:15 ) CRT Visual Test Pattern Check - 240p Test Suite ( 16:09 ) Final Thoughts on Repairs ( 16:32 ) Slide Show from repair ( 17:31 )
