Hi D,
At the risk of sounding patronising (not intended, honest) have you eliminated
all the other possibilities?
- Was the Iici working before it was recapped?
- If yes, were there any particular symptoms such as odd images on screen?
Checkerboard? vertical lines?
- Have you checked there are
Great list Keith! I second Keith's suggestion of cleaning boards after
recapping. This always needs to be done since you can't always see the
electrolyte residue. This ends up being a hidden problem fairly often.
Best,

Good suggestions all.
Prior to sending the board in for recapping, the video worked perfectly with no
artifacts.
I will have to scrutinize the board around the video section to look solder
joint bridging or contamination.
As far as testing the monitor, what could I plug into it?

with the Mac IIci you NEED to make sure RAM is installed in Bank A...
if you have ram in bank B, you will get no video.

That appears to be Bank A, from squinting at board photos online - which is the
correct one for internal video to work. Time to
