OK... so here is an update.
Installed a cap kit on the ARII also replaced both R29 and R30 since they were burnt. voltages seem correct and steady. Will verify this again tonight.
Replaced big blue and gave everything a good cleaning. Cleaned the edge connectors on the main PCB. Red LED is on...
Thanks for the info! I'll check it out. I have ordered a big blue to start and will go from there.
I will let you know how it works out. And thanks for the offer to help!
Hello,
Just purchased my first arcade over the weekend. Other then a badly burnt in monitor, that was hidden by tinted lexan, it's overall very nice.
Was playing great for the first few days. Walked out of the room to get a drink, came back and there was garbage on the screen and nothing...
