After reading yet another craigslist ad featuring a game that worked yesterday but won't turn on today, probably a fuse, I decided to take a moment and create a repair guide for arcade machines according to craigslist. Click on the attachment to view full size.

You are welcome.

EDIT: This is humor. No games, that I'm aware of, have a giant fuse on top.

It's not a fuse issue silly.... it's always a disconnected wire on the harness... everybody knows that!
 
I bought a game that worked last week but didn't work today. so i talked him down and when i got home to look at it could not fine anything wrong with it. Maybe he should of tried to plug it in before i got there, but it still works good 1 year later
 
LOL! Hahahaha, so true! Everybody says it's a fuse and can be repaired cheap whenever a game is not working. :p
 
Wow! Either my sense of humor is really off, or people really think somebody believes there is a giant fuse on top of cabinets. Or maybe my MS Paint skills are really very bad.

They might actually look on the top of the game and find the power switch there and fix it that way.
 
I hope you realize this was my lame attempt at a joke. :)

LOL! Of course, I was admiring your slot machine picture...I mean arcade with a huge fuse on top of it. I was given an arcade a few years back because they said it wouldn't turn on. All I did was flick the power switch on it and it worked perfectly. I'm an IT guy for a living, you'd be surpirsed how brainless my days have become because people overlook the obvious. (is it plugged in, is the power switch on, etc.)

I hoped so. I work on the programming side of IT and have seen some of the same stuff you have I'm sure.

HAHAHA! Got to love being in the IT world...the best part is when you do something, like hit the power button on a monitor, that makes the person feel stupid which causes them to tell you how stupid you must think they are. LOL. I just smile and say "no, not at all", when I'm really laughing inside my head.
