Hi there :)

I'm searching for an Electric component...
this component is from a video game arcade cabinet (for the TV).

Here is the picture to see the faulty component :

Feel free to contact me if you have any information or if you have this component.

Thanks for your help and support ;)

That is a thermistor,,,,,
It's used to degauss the crt when you first switch on from cold...
It's conected to the degauss coil fitted around the back of the crt
The Thermistor only activates when cold to prevent constant degauss of the crt when you power on the set and its warm...the thermistor warms up when used....

Why degauss?
This is needed to maintain correct colour purity on the screen whilst the Earth rotates and changes occour in the natural magnetism around us.
Degausing only needs to be done every 1-2 days dependant on location of the set around the globe.

The good news is that this is a standard part that can be taken from any tv set or monitor from your same voltage location.
Try a tv repair yard or boot sale / scrap yard
