You would have to go through all the capacitors in the power supply and vertical deflection circuits with an ESR meter. More than likely you will find a number of capacitors that have become high in ESR with use. This was very common on many of these monitors.
Since there are serious safety issues when working in monitors, if you are not properly trained and equipped to do monitor service work, you should give the monitor out to a service centre for an estimate.
Considering the quality of the new LCD monitors that are in the same price range that you paid for your Mits monitor, it may be a better preference to upgrade to a descent LCD screen. There are many advantages of the LCD technology over the CRT technology.

Hi, I've got a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 930SB 19" computer Monitor that's been working great for about 2 years, but has started getting a twitch or two in it's vertical deflection after 10 or 12 hours on.
Flat lined once on me. Toggling power saving mode for a few seconds usually clears it up for the short term. I've stopped using it with a screen saver and have gone to the power saving mode when I'm not using it to give it a rest and cool down.
Google confirmed a couple of other people have had the same problem but didn't yield the real issue or fix. Hell of a high performance monitor for ~$300, but I guess the parts were just a bit too cheap.
Wondering if anyone is familiar with the problem.
TIA
