Hi there. I'm rebuilding my computer collection that I had when I was growing up. I bought an Amstrad CPC6128 with CTM-644 monitor on eBay 2-3 years ago and stored in the attic, but when I got them back down to use them a couple of weeks ago I found the monitor had broken (attaching a photo).

Looks like this may be a common problem with these monitors. I'd love to get it repaired if possible rather than try to find another on eBay that could easily get the same problem - can anyone help and advise me? I'm based near Oxford but happy to ship it to someone who can repair it...

Thank you in advance!

yeah,ill have a look at it,i already replied to your pm,i just wanted to see the thread
 
i suspect there is more than one fault in play here,one of them is the yoke

with that said im more than happy to attempt a repair when he is ready
 
this is now repaired,and fully working as far as i can see

i'll briefly try to explain what i did
the yoke problem was a broken coil turn in the yoke's horizontal winding,repaired sealed that etc
remount and allignment,have no choice there for obvious reasons
i did tweak some settings for a better picture
i replaced the video cord as it was a bit mangled
i think thats about it,ill go let him know ,i hope this makes him happy:)
some pictures to show it works
