Is the >problem that there's too much resistance already ? Too much voltage to fiddle with. In Brazil we have this module (focus= divider, it's called this way) for sale, cost is less than $10. In usa= maybe you find the transformer for this price. But when it happens here, I= change the focus divider and a new monitor is born :o) --------------8<-------Corte aqui-------8<-------------- All the best!!!
