Bringing a Commodore 1084S-P1 back to life!

Описание: A customer sent in this Commodore 1084S-P1 monitor in good-looking condition to get the RCA connections on the back looked at, and a general cleanup, but looks can be deceiving and it needed a bit more love than expected.

Some things went bad along the way, with the 30 year old components beginning to fail, but everything is working and beautiful now. I learned a lot during the repair on this monitor, so I hope I can share those learnings with you!

I am NOT an expert, I have genuinely NO idea what I'm doing, and mostly just glue things together and use a lot of Google-fu until stuff works. I've been tinkering with electronics since I was a kid, but have no formal training and will probably do things incorrectly. If you learn something from this, that's awesome, but trust me - I'm learning too!
