Another Pole Position question? Why, yes. Yes it is.

Okay. Now that Dragon's Lair is as done as possible for now. Going back to working on the Pole Position.

It runs fine for about an hour or so (oftentimes less) and then starts coining up (randomly, sometimes just once, sometimes 3-4 in a row)... sometimes coming up to the screen telling you to press the start button. Out of curiosity, I adjusted the coin mechs to give different credits. When I did that, I found that it's reading the left coin mech. I unplugged the harness from the coindoor... still getting a read like it's the left coin mech (3 credits).

I have a BEAST of a fan in there now circulating air and keeping everything as cool as I can. I -think- we're down to the edge connector now... before I order any more parts in, does that sound about right?

Absolutely... My edge connector did similar wonky crap after working fine for a half hour or so... A friend tested my boardset in his machine and it worked great. My money's on the edge connector.
