Hello peeps,
My recent find is a Asteroids Cabaret as pictured. When I purchased it I was informed by the previous owner that it was not powering on (the game worked but then stopped one day), in addition I was also told that it was playing blindly last night, sound could be heard but no picture could be seen on the tube.
Any recommendations on where I should start troubleshooting? I was going to check the fuses but I am mildly horrified about even being near the power supply as it is exposed. Anything I should look out for before I start poking around the fuses?
I would also like to add that when the unit is plugged in and powered on (I do not know which way is on on the power switch which is also horrifying me.) I hear no hum from the monitor, no lights from the marquee, no lights from the LED's on the start buttons or the credit lights.
Edit: I jumped the gun and ordered a fuse kit.
