Monitor degaussing issues in arcade cabinets can lead to color distortion and image quality problems, especially in older CRT displays. To prevent these issues, follow these effective methods:

1. Regular Degaussing – Use a built-in degaussing coil or an external degaussing tool periodically to neutralize magnetic interference.

2. Avoid Magnetic Sources – Keep speakers, power supplies, and other magnetic devices away from the monitor to prevent interference.

3. Proper Ventilation – Ensure the arcade cabinet has adequate airflow to prevent overheating, which can weaken the degaussing circuit.

4. Stable Power Supply – Use a surge protector to avoid voltage spikes that may damage the degaussing components.

5. Monitor Positioning – Avoid placing the arcade cabinet near strong magnetic fields, such as elevators or large metal structures.

By following these steps, you can extend the lifespan of your arcade cabinet’s CRT monitor and maintain optimal display performance. Regular maintenance is key to preventing degaussing-related issues.
