    Anyone got a Makvision M2929D7 lying around they can look at for me?

    Had someone give me a BBH Safari with a dead monitor. Fixed the blown caps and looked it over. Only other thing I've found is a crispy NTC (thermistor). Need a reference for a replacement. If nothing else I could try one off a D9200. If you have a parts chassis and want to send me one, I'd...

    Battlezone ROM burning

    Can BZ be adapted to run on four 2532's instead of eight 2516's? And if so, how do you go about it? Don't see any jumpers on the board. I have two v1 ROMs failing when verified against v1 files, and when read/saved and submitted to the online ROMident. One of the chips is a Synertek chip that...

    Tempest pcb killed by Big Blue?

    I started with a completely working Tempest. I was working on another Atari (Millipede) and suspected I might have a Big Blue issue, so I swapped it into my Tempest brick to see if the game booted. Turned it on and got a speaker buzz and solid start buttons. Turned it off, threw away that Big...

    Another Battlezone thread...

    (Background for those who don't remember me - I have been fixing games for a long time and am primarily a monitor tech. I have a background in electronics but it's been a long time since tech school and I don't really have a good grasp of circuit theory when it comes to addressers and RESET...

    Know something technical about Street Basketball?

    Made by Saint-Fun out of Taiwan - so I can't call. Seen it branded as a Sonic the Hedgehog basketball game, too. Looks fairly new. Manual is typical operator BS. No input test - and no test button installed. Game comes on - credits - starts - plays music while the 3-2-1-Go! Game doesn't...

    Tempest issue...

    So I'm trying to fix a Tempest for a customer. Did a full monitor rebuild with LV2000 which I tested as working in my cab. My boss did the initial service call and brought me the pcb and AR2 to test. Both tested fine in my cab. So, I took it all back out to the customer's house, put them in the...

    K7000 - smoking flyback?

    So I rebuilt a dead K7000 with new flyback and full caps. Replaced shorted HOT and VR and blown fuse. Checked C36 (fine) and width cap. Fixed cold solder. Powered up and get HV, but after about 30-60 seconds you hear a little crackling and smoke starts pouring out from under the flyback. The...

    U5000 - Anyone have any bright ideas?

    Got a U5000 chassis that I've installed a full cap kit, fixed cold solder, etc. No picture. B+ is a steady 119v. No HV. No neck glow. I've gone over the entire start up circuit and can't find a problem. Tried different remotes, different neckboards - it's not working. HOT is good. I'm going...

    Ms Pac give free game when on quarters play.

    Original Ms Pac on location. Multiple times will show up and find lots of credits on it. Sometimes first thing in the day. Turn it off and back on and credits go away. Later I'll hear it has lots of credits again. They seem to think a coin getting stuck is causing it. I could see if it was...

    What's the polarity of this cap?

    I think the stripe is the negative and the beveled end is the positive, but I know some axial caps use the stripe for positive. This is an aluminum electrolytic cap, btw.

    Tekken Tag Tournament - monitor resolution possibilities?

    Tekken Tag Tournament - monitor resolution possibilities? Got a customer with a TTT that wants to replace the dead monitor with a VGA LCD. The board looks like it has two VGA connectors on it, but hooking up a PC monitor doesn't sync a picture. So what gives with the connectors? Will he need...

    Did WG make a U8000?

    Have someone telling me a repair shop told him his monitor is a WG U8000.2? It's in a Cruis'n USA. I'm thinking it's a U5000 and am trying to get him to send me a pic. Was there a U8000?

    Sanwa 29E31S connector pinout?

    I have the aforementioned monitor and am trying to bench test it. This is a VGA only chassis (31khz) and I am using a 60-in-1 for the VGA input. I was told it came out of a Mario Kart, but the MK manual I found online doesn't show this type of connector. The chassis has a 12-pin AMP connector...

    Something Weird...

    So I have horizontal JAMMA cab that I got running recently. It's got a D9200 tri-res currently set up for CGA/EGA input. I started with a 19-in-1 set to CGA and got a great picture. Played many different games. Then I put in a Punisher and it played great. Then I put in a Lethal Enforcers 2...

    Repair Log: 13K7203

    Was asked to look at a 13" K7203 that was dead. 13K7203 Symptom: Dead. Diagnosis: If I turned the monitor on, it sounded like it was coming up, but then quickly gave me some static as it shutdown. If I turned it off and back on quickly, the monitor would come on and stay on with raster but...

    BU2532AL sub

    Can't find it on Mouser. Seems to cross to an NTE2533 which my local Fry's doesn't have in stock. Can I use an NTE2354? Seems to be pretty close. Replacing a shorted HOT on an NT-2701...

    Name the game

    Okay, someone find Ken Layton. :D Customer called me looking for the name of a game. It was a love compatibility-type game. She said it looked like a computer mainframe with blinking lights, you'd put in your money (maybe 50 cents) and lights would blink and it might beep-boop-beep and...
