I finally got around to messing with the Asteroids I picked up last night. The machine is very clean inside and everything appears to be complete.

Seller informed me that the switch was bad which is true. It has been sheered off completely so cant switch machine on. The switch is large black box with 6 prongs. 2 Whites and 2 blacks attached to switch. And a grey (ground) attached to cabinet.

Is there a way to bypass this switch all together so the machine will turn on automatically when plugged in? I need to get power to the game some how before I can check the other stuff out. Would splicing the two whites together and two blacks together complete the circuit?

Can you bypass the power button?

2 whites and 2 blacks are connected to the power button. Its sheered off and Im no electrician so what combo would complete the circuit effectively bypassing the switch?

Someone must know.
