MORTAL KOMBAT ARCADE RESTORE PART 13 - HANTAREX POLO FILM CAPACITORS

- In this video we are going to revisit our old friend, the Hantarex Polo monitor. Following the flow chart, we will check C172, C174, and C175. These are the film caps near the flyback. We will test each using our ESR meter. Are these shorted?
Enjoy the vids? Consider supporting me! Thank you, John! youtube.streamlabs.com/johnsa... - Hry
Was waiting to see if that glass of soda was gonna fall off / knock off the table...
Infinite resistance = open, 0 ohms = short. That capacitor looks to have failed open rather than short. That type is non polarised, but the voltage ratings are important to get right for safety.
Im throwing a party when this restoration series gets finished.
2020?
Same here
Love the glass of soda on the wobbly table next to the electronics and energized power strip on the floor underneath it...John FTW!
LIVING ON THE EDGE
The videos to repair the monitor are so far my favorites
Wow! The cabinet looks great
been watching this for years, its what brought me to the channel
Years? John bought the cabinet less than two years ago.
John, recently found your channel and have been watching your videos. I am stunned you don't have more subs -- the content is absolutely fantastic! Keep it up!
Thanks, man!
Hey John, I dropped off my H.Polo too Gene at vintage arcade in Burbank, CA. Gene shook his head no, we don’t work on those! Lol. Your tenacious man!
Gene only fixes and sells his games, rarely takes in repairs anymore.. more profit i guess in repairing his own.
Cool man, finding that faulty part after all this time is awesome haha
-Mitch
Glad you found a part that was messed up, gives ya a little bit of hope you can finally get this thing going. Great vid as always, cheers on the Pratt Rum lol.
There is no Pratt rum there, and by the way, "Rum" isn't part of the brand name.
Your basement is so awesome!!! I wish I could have one like that but alas I live in Texas and we don't have basements as the Ocean water is like 15 feet down lol. The sewers have problems sometimes. I live in a small 2 bedroom condo, one of the rooms is empty but I could only fit about 12 games in it if I ever decided to buy any... I guess I could fit 5 more in the dining room but thats about it. Oh well I am content with my little condo and I have a ps4, xbox one, and a switch plus a decent pc so yeah. I love how you have your pc in that little nook. I am going to have to create an enclosed "nook" for my gaming area one day I love being enclosed lol.
Glad your tech videos are back John :D
Ha i did find your channel because of the mortal kombat restore videos.
you are giving us hopes John!!!
I really thought that this was going to be the ep that you were going to finish MKII. I JUST WANT TO SEE THE FINISHED PRODUCT!!! Love your channel.
ME TOO
Your basement is reminds me of a arcade from the early 1990s.
Good video man Im still trying to finish my UMK3 luckily my monitor works but i still gotta get all the controls and side art and btw damn that side art is expensive!
Um, if something's shorted, the ohms are not infinite; they're *zero.* So if the meter says the ohms are infinite, then it's actually *open,* not shorted. There's another good place for a card over the top with a correction note.
John, don't fee bad at 10:13. I do the SAME thing on my phone to see small stuff. It works great!
Hell yeah John let's get back to business get on that Mortal Kombat 2 yezzir 👍
Awesome, hope that fixes it pal. Can't wait to see what's coming on Thursday!!!!!!
Good one John!! 😁
John, I recently had to buy glasses for my close up electronics work, You will be amazed at the difference and at least go for the eye test. I wished I had brought bi-foculs so I can look down for close work and up for normal vision as I have to keep taking the glasses off or keep them on the end of my nose.
John I do the exact same thing with my phone LOL
they make a great magnifying glass :)
Ladies and gentlemen big J is off the couch!!
That beard is coming in nice Jon!!!
It's a pirate beard, to match the rum
Thanks John I must have missed your reply the first time.
wish i had deals like you got on that cabinet around me.
$60 for a completely empty cabinet with ruined side art isn't a great deal, though.
czcams.com/video/XPTTouzb-1U/video.html
lol compared to the prices of the of the stuff thats available around me it is and the cost to make a cabinet from scratch your going to spend $50 just on the plywood
Same. Arcade cabinets are the craze now. Even empty/nonworking ones go for at least 300 bucks on craigslist. Need a time machine to go back about 10 yrs to get the deals.
Get some Hazuki glasses John! They are made in Japan and I just got some and they are GREAT!!
You could put a Raspberry PI in that barrel and a small LCD in the briefcase with a window and you have your own little retro clone mod thing.
Anyone remember the glory old days of John's Arcade, good times.
I think he got bored, the videos have been dwindling lately, it's a crime he only has 38K subs
I watched all 13 of these today, lol
Hey John as a fellow Arcade collector AND guitar player I'm begging you to show some of your guitar gear during a video! I see those sweet Gretsch in the background so top teasing us : ) Rock on!
Ha. Maybe. :)
Hey john, good luck on the polo. I feel that if you can fix a polo, you can fix anything in the arcade world lol. Did you, by chance, ever do the light bulb test with this monitor? It will let you know whether the short lies on the deflection side or power supply side of the board. Also look for cracked traces and test with your continuity meter.
That glass of pop going to take a tumble on to the ground
Well, it can't unless he takes it outside.
I have a hantarex polo the screen has a dark vertical line on the left side of the screen that doesn't go away. Any idea what might be going bad. Someone recommended replacing the flyback but anyone have anymore ideas please share. Thanks
No one can call you a quitter John! This monitor repair has been a marathon. A lesser man would have thrown that chassis over the back fence.
WOO HOO !!! MK2 VID !!
A shame that Augmented Reality isn't quite with us just yet. Could have a virtual map in front of your eyes to see what part goes where, highlighting the exact pieces and spots to work on...even when you turn the board around to know exactly which 'dot' to de-solder at. And, you could zoom in on part information. (If you still needed it.) AND have some stylish, tech glasses that can be decoyed as an assistance tool and/or fashion.
If that isn't Trek enough, we're always coming closer and closer to the days when nanobots can be taken via a pill and give all of us a much needed tune up from the inside.
It'll make the current generation even dumber than they already are.
I watched this again just to reminisce about the old days when John made videos on a regular basis. Member the time when there was even more than one new video a week? Memberberries.
Its now week 13 of this year and only 5 videos from this channel.....
Yes I remember those day, it all went to sh!t when John and Jay put games in the Hanger.
I think working on arcades became a "job" for John instead of a "hobby" and is why he finds it hard to get motivated make work on his "Basement" arcades and make videos.
These days he mainly plays PC and switch games....
Sucks but that is the truth!
Also no sign of a video this week either yet, so could very well blowout to a month without a video :-(
The growth of this channel would for sure be effected by the randomness of this channel now....
Very hit and miss this channel is these days.
I agree. For the past years, John was already a busy man dealing with his daily job, music, arcade repairs videos and weekly VGO show. Being an operator (especially with 3 locations to take care of) on top of that has surely sucked up most of his spare time and led him to neglect some of the aspects of the hobby to focus on what pleases him the most which for the moment is : online co-op games broadcasted live on twitch, creating a new cartoon animated serie (which i don't really fancy... no offense though), working on a new music album and being a host to VGO tuesday show.John has been steadily dedicated to arcade restore since 2008 and i think the guy has right to take a break from it whenever he sees fit. That being said i'm sure his motivation for it will come back with the sun and heat when access to the garage will make it easier to work Inside (the basement seems tight as hell and not a very pleasing place for a job on a restore anyway... Take a look at this video here seeing him diagnose this poor monitor chassis on the wobbly table or remember the computer space restore with Adam constantly starting up frogger when taking a step backward).Let's be patient :=)... Just my 2 cents anyway !
PinMan Dan I've always played modern console games. I've never not I'm playing the same amount as I always have. Only thing different is I'm pressing the stream button. :) I appreciate the concern. :)
All good John, I was just simply stating when I think your channel started taking a turn and yes you mainly stream PC / console games these days.
I hope that fixes your polo problem!
There is hope!! However, it sounds like Dragon's Lair is missing the attract mode voice-over. Always something.
No, I turned that down. Was annoying.
I use my phone as a magnifying glass too!
old people problems :)
Did you find the keys to our basement yet John. I'm missing my games and the chats 😁
Hey John Where are you gonna find a dedicated point blank
Not fanboying out at all hearing my name. Nope. Not even a little.
Ha! Great video you did on this same topic! :)
I was one of the ones that found your polo repair video on the /r/cade reddit and sent it to John. It was nice to see someone else with the same problem and get it working. I've subscribed to your channel as well. I really enjoy watching tech repair videos. Keep up the great work!
Man I really appreciate that. Huge compliment as your videos are the best.
I love watching repair videos too. Something calming about watching someone work to repair something, even when it doesn't always work. I think working on monitors is therapeutic for me.
No offense John, but I learned a hell more from Sunken Canoe than from watching all 13 videos about this hantarex board. His channel is great with other chassis. Sunken Canoe uses logic and steps; he isn't all over the place like spaghetti. Take this as constructive criticism not an attack on you.
Dude it's PYRAT like PIRATE. Pirates like their rum. Get it?
Lol. Oh.
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech no it's been ruined it can't be
Did you manage to drop and crack your desoldering gun already? On a bright note, I hope that component is the fix for your board. It's been a frustrating journey.
Hey john. Wheres the next video ?
..is that a Gretsch, in your home arcade? I want your life ;)
where can I get one of those shirts???
Hell John!! How many apps do you have open on your phone at the same time??? :)
I do this magnifying trick all the time. but I do snapshots and zoom in then 😂😂😂
Really, the lower the resistance, the higher the quality/health of the cap? Are ya _sure?_ Because that wouldn't explain the _shorted_ cap problem too well now, would it, John?
where did you order the caps from, I need to replace mine
Worst monitor I capped one put new flyback in it worked for about week and the flyback died. Then just threw it away
John, clean your solder tip's and use more flux....
Rules to live by: Keep your tip clean and flux more.
Edwin, you want John to clean his solder tip's... what? I mean which possession of the tip did you want him to clean, instead of the tip itself?
Vgo rocks
Did you loose power last Saturday
What’s the word on the Mortal Kombat 2 monitor?
John, I've noticed you no longer say you release videos every week ?
Also you've averaged 1 video per fortnight, is this what your plan is from now on ?
Or just to release a video whenever you can ?
PinMan Dan I have no plan. :) Been working on other stuff the last few weeks.
Hey john whats up with the voice on dragons lair. It wasnt on do you have it turned down
I turned that down. Drove me insane.
Hey, Freak, what's up with your question mark (?) key?
why does the bro run a full arcade in the basement but doesnt want to run a space heater in a garage during the winter
Please could you share the links or part numbers for those poly caps, I need to replace mine on the same chassis.
I only found the one cap so far. I am having trouble locating the other two besides ordering from Taiwan on ebay. This is the one that was bad www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/80-PHE448RB4330JR06
Thanks John, If you find the other two would you mind sharing with me? If I find out the parts/links before you I'll be sure to share with you too.
I think these are the specs, I managed to find all of these okay.
C172 = Film Capacitors 3300pF 1600V 15mm
C174 = Film Capacitors 8.2nf 1600V
C175 = Film Capacitors .012UF 630V
where did you find them? The larger cap is 22.5mm lead spacing. I can't find them.
Well I'm in the UK so not sure you'd be wanting to order from here?
Both the following were from: uk.rs-online.com/

No to be picky John... but several times you said the part was shorted but also said ESR was infinite.
Shorted reads zero, -- Infinite, is "open".
This might avoid confusion for someone.
Yeah, someone else said that too. My mouth moves a lot faster than my brain. :)
What is your real full-time job man?
They're all old, order all 3! Fix it now or fix it later!
nice table Go Pats! ;)
who finds a MK2 Cab for 50$ ;Im looking and cant find one for 400$ What Craigs List ??
So you obviously actually _didn't_ replace all the capacitors, or you would have replaced these 3. Plus, normally you don't replace nonelectrolytic capacitors anyway. So a good card over that period of commentary (4:00ish) should work out nicely.
Why bother putting the old part back in if you're just gonna order its replacement anyway?
Will you please reprint Tommy's e-mail and read the whole thing to us?
The ESR's on all three suspects sound Knackered to me.........!!!!
Think so? I am having trouble finding the other two for order.
Just go to walmart and get a pair of those glasses on the rack by the pharmacy...........................thats what i did so i could see close-up.
Might as well say to stick a piece of glass in his eyes, it's equally bad.
Hey, I think "Pyrat" Rum can be pronounced "Pirate". :)
I HAVE BEEN SAYING IT WRONG FOR TWO YEARS
Haha
John, please, please, I need a new video :D
Soon?
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech yes please ;)
I'm suffering withdrawal symptoms :)
John, who IS this Girl Michelle? Your girlfriend, fancier or just your compagnion on twitch and CZcams? (am I too curious ?) XD
She is my co-host on our podcast VGO that we have been doing for about 13 years. We also do a bunch of other creative things together like Twitch, etc.
hey john, I saw your street fighter 2 video from 2011, i am a big street fighter 2 fan, could you see if your guy could hook me up?
Not sure what you mean? My guy?
John for president!!👍great work
So, um.... Part 14? Bueller? Anyone? Anyone?
5 years?! More like 2.5.
1 year and 8 months.
What he said.
Are you sure it's not meant to be pronounced Py-Rat, as in Pirate? "Pirate Rum" would seem to make more sense than 'Prat Rum'
I think I have discovered today that it is called "Pirate". lol
No, John, it's called just like it says, "Pyrat."
Dave, he wasn't saying "prat," but "pih * RAT" (short a).
Hey John, I would suggest you take down your "new vid every Sunday" off your logo. We all get busy with life or other interests and putting out a video when you can will be appreciated but don't want to get peoples expectations up to that level.
Why don't you get your *eyes lasered!* John to correct your vision!? You already probably got the caps! but the problem might be that the voltage I think you said it was 160 volts is a bit close to it's working voltage so a 250v or higher would be better
Why don't you put *sponsor* on your channel, to sell your t-shirts and other bric-a-brac you could sell the mini arcade games there as well.
And I was just thinking maybe you could do on the "sponsor" a swap shop! on Arcade and pinball? Something I've not seen anywhere?
Is there such a thing anyway?
Where's that rum from! you should get a cuddly toy of Donkey Kong holding the barrel on top of the arcade just to set it off
He needs reading glasses, lasering won't help.
John, If you are age 40 or more, you need to get an eye exam.
Typically at age 40, the muscle in your eyes start to lose the ability to refocus on close objects.
Ask your doctor about prescription computer glasses. Otherwise, you can get bifocals with no prescription on the upper portion. I know it sucks but just do it. You'll thank me later.
"computer glasses"
Prescription glasses created based on 1 viewing distance of 2-3 feet.
Your eye doctor will set up a special eye chart at the distance from your eyes to your computer monitor. (Measure that distance before going in)
I spend most of my day in front of a computer screen. Using single vision lenses set for monitor viewing distance for hours at a time is a godsend.
Reduces eye strain and I can read large spreadsheets with ease.
I've had them for 6 months now and I can never go back.
It sucks getting old, but you don't have to struggle to see. You just need the right glasses.
Those are called reading glasses.
Sure I understand why you would say that. Google: "Computer Glasses" and then "difference between reading glasses and computer glasses"
Why do you keep putting things on Twitch? I don't want to use twitch I don't want to sign into twitch you can't watch anything without subscribing hopefully you'll put it on CZcams?
39:16 that didn't sound good, sounds like glass broke in the background
So someone sent you a $500 meter for free?
Why use a $500 meter when you don't know how to use it and you can't even tell a short from an open.
Okura, what happened to your keyboard in the area where the question mark (?) key sits?
It's pronounced "Pirate rum", John. Not "Prat"
WHY DIDN'T ANYONE CORRECT ME TWO YEARS AGO. :) I have been saying it wrong FOREVER apparently. :)
Cooler name though, isn't it?
I bet he feels a prat!
Kyle and Vax, he's not saying it like "prat." He's saying "pih * RAT" (short a). But let me ask you about what you think it should be. You say it's supposed to be pronounced "pirate." In a pronunciation key, "pirate" = "pi (long i) * ra (long a) * tee," so it looks like the word "pirate" but is pronounced differently (with the e not being silent), which is what you're saying when you say that it's pronounced "pirate." Right?
John himself commented earlier saying he was saying it wrong.. look here ^
When are you going to put out new videos???
Sooon
Oops, that Italian guy falsely accused cocktail cabinets as "not being cabinets"! How? Because he compared them by saying "compared to the cabinets."
I saw this guy at the Hangar when I was getting chicken wings.
I saw this guy spam the same comment the past 20 videos.
I saw this guy at the brothel when I was getting a Scotch Egg.
Or a maybe a Scotch egg, Simon.
Hey, John! There's no such thing as an "LCD display"! Why? Because that's like saying "liquid crystal display display"!
