 Hello again, everyone. I'm Steve and we are back with Retro Tech's refurbishment and restoration of the Sony PVM 1353 slash oEV Olympus 142 I've got The capacitor job done as you saw in the last video and today is all about reassembling the monitor and then testing it to make Sure our work was not for nothing This is honestly the most nerve-wracking and nervous point in all this to make sure that I didn't do something wrong You either hurt the monitor make it not work at all so Just know that you're always risking that when you do these kind of jobs You could damage something and end up with a much bigger project than you anticipated But anyway today, let's go ahead and look at the monitor I've almost got it fully reassembled, but I wanted to walk you through that process so you could see how to do it Let's go ahead and start to reassemble our PVM now The first thing to do is remember to screw your black Slip plate back onto your board underneath just the four screws Then you slide it back in along the tracks a little bit. It slides in a lot easier Then when it was coming out, but see it's just slides in a lot easier But you want to do is don't just push it all the way back go ahead and connect to the top portion of The board back there with all the other connectors because there's a lot of connectors up there And it'll be hard to get to them if you push it in So I've gone ahead and done that connected all them up front just all the connections that match and There should be every single one up at the top of the board and then you'll have a bunch of cords You want to pull behind and they'll go to different spots and these other boards So I'm just going to go ahead now and slide Straight back into where it pretty much belongs And it sits you can see it on a track kind of The first thing I want to get back in there is this little board was under my power supply And that's pretty simple just Pugs in over here and a socket But The next thing I want to do is the last thing I want to put in is this board next thing I want to try to put back is my input board here and I Just like the other ones. So I've got three three cables that are going to connect from here to there and then This one's going to the yoke so I think what I want to try to do first is It's good to make these so like I said these color match Slip them back where they belong. It's pretty easy to reassemble So I'm just going to continue on this and then let's say there's a couple of these that you'll need to go back up here Well, we did took them off of Backboard here. So because it was easier than Take them away from the front. There's still one more so there it is and Man, I tell you this is really like kind of exciting, but it's also it makes me really really nervous because You it just you never can tell You hope you didn't do anything wrong, but you could make a little mistake and damage something in The process of just even moving things around. So that's it So now all my cables back here reconnected. I'm just gonna slip this board back what belongs in here and I'll worry about cleaning up my wiring after I test it and So now it's a fun part too Because we're going to slide this cool looking board right on the back here And you can see that that's just going to be what I'm going to do next Be careful. Just make sure you line things up. You don't really want to bend anything. You want to do more of a Slow there you go even push so you get everything lined up perfectly Right in there And there's a couple of connectors. I've got three more Cables to connect from the board Here and then Another two spots a ground cable There this and so that's all those so let's scoot in a little bit The last thing It's putting our fly back back in here. So back was in there like that and That loop went in there if I remember correctly. Okay, so anyway Make sure it's clean in your cap and Should be able to squeeze this a little bit Hopefully But you're going to want to just try to work in one edge of this and then push it against the other to get it back in there Be careful not to try to you know bend this or Not be gentle with it should just like snap in there kind of on the first part and then put your cap down Make sure it's good and sealed All right We're getting real close now go ahead snap that Back in there, and I've got a couple of ground spots I'm going to connect and I'm going to clean up my wiring and Then we're going to fire it up and see how it how it works Well, welcome back. I've got the monitor completely reassembled for the first time We're going to take a look inside closer so you can just see Important things to remember make sure that your neck boards lined up properly With your CRT gun there and then again all your connections are made Just make a double check make sure nothing's loose Everything is looks good. We've again inserted the Anode cap got it ready. I've got my ground connections all connected over here and then You can see it's pretty much ready. So it's been fully reassembled And it's ready to turn on so what I'm going to do first is I'm going to plug in A video source, which is the super nintendo again just to test it and make sure that it's going to turn on So I'm going to use my scart input here And Then I'm going to put in the power cable to Also so I want to make sure that everything works still even the audio on it so I'll put that in there and This is I'm not going to calibrate it right yet if it works. I'm chipping Honestly, this is like the most again nerve-wracking and nervous time is Oh, so I don't know if you just heard that but it definitely just kicked on because I didn't realize the button was pushed in That's what can happen and Record in here when we're looking at a pvm. So Just let me look around front and Turn on Yes, so I am very happy so far because Look at that We've got our signal here and obviously we can see We're gonna have to do some geometry settings Especially on our vertical size and centerness, but that's not a big problem. That'll be easy. That's from the service menu The yoke maybe tilts a little I cannot tell I don't think it is. It's just hard to say maybe a little bit Wow So that's what you want to see Is oh, yeah, everything just working here menus Okay, great RGB so this thing will get run through a full gamut of tests and so let's just Go ahead and press start on here and see if the volume will work Why not? So, I mean even without making any adjustments. There we go. We got some sound. It looks great perfect Awesome. So this thing just needs to do some adjustment settings. It looks beautiful man sharp attack Great looking monitor here. Wow. And obviously our kind of over scanned. So let's see what happens Under scans working Over scans working everything you guys yep um, so I don't have the paint in so I'm just going to release this video the way it is another short kind of intermediate One of the monitor hooked back up and obviously running and working The next time I will get the paint for the shell We'll take apart the shell finish it and then we'll come back And we will calibrate this thing and get it working beautifully looking great But man Awesome finish to the I mean, I guess this is almost the fourth video quasi video I mean, we had the little tool video. So the two bigger videos and now two shorter videos And then we'll have one final video To end up this series on the pvm. Thanks again for watching today. I'm steve. Have a great afternoon
