So I pulled my Sperry Portable down to play with it and the screen wouldn't light up. It would boot up, but nothing would display. It did work the last time I had it on the table (about 3 weeks ago).
I verified that the power supply is feeding a good 12VDC to the video board.
A visual inspection of the video board shows no leaky/bulging caps. My guess is that the flyback transformer is bad.
The only markings that I can see on it are:
FMC-0945 GL
KFB-5008
S X H N
Looking up these in Google don't really show me much. Sadly, I have not been able to locate any deep technical information for this system.
So my question is:
How can I find out what what to order to replace this transformer?
