Looking for service manual for Zenith Data Systems ZVM-1240 monitor
After looking for almost two years to get my hands on IBM 5153, i finally found one on flea market. One in a lot of four old displays.
Got:
- IBM 5153, fully working, finally my 5160 will be happy 
- IBM 8513 (PS/2 color VGA), also works,
- Highscreen HP-548, or better known as Commodore 1081 - works too (A500 likes this),
- Zenith ZVM-1240-E - Hercules, amber, unfortunately dead.
At first, magic smoke escaped, this was traced to filter cap (.22uF 280v). No big deal - it should work without this cap. Unfortunately fuse was blown too, after replacing it blew up too.
PCB has no signs of any damage/corosion/burn marks; overall condition of this monitor is very good. However it's a long time since I last serviced any CRT.
I see a few mentions of service manual for this model in web, most of them points to scam sites. Found P/N "860-0111-1" on old Packard Bell FTP, but this also leads nowhere.
Yup, didn't check even capacitors yet (since I have no time for deeper diagnostic now), but I try to at least get prepared for when the time comes.

You could try this:

Don't know how trustworthy this site is. Sometimes they show items they don't actually have.

Wow, missed this post somehow. Thank you!
I'll update topic when I'll get back to this monitor. Currently I worked on resurrecting couple of a bit newer devices
