Asteroids Deluxe main PCB connector just sits on guide rail?!
Asteroids Deluxe main PCB has two edge connectors... the main one and the one just below the 6502 processor. This one is smaller and doesn't have anything connected.
In my cabinet, this main PCB slides into 2 guide rails. However, when inserted into the guide rails the 2nd edge connector (the one below the 6502) just sits on the guide rail.
That cannot be right... I'm worried about shorts since the connectors are exposed.
Is this how they are fit? Am I missing some cover for this second connector? Perhaps the slide rails are not conductive --- I'll run down and check.
>>> Never mind. I thought it was a metal rail... it's plastic. Please ignore...
Thanks!
