I have a nice Baby Pacman I am trying to bring back to life. The original MPU boards were missing so I purchased a allteck MPU. The game boots and video comes up but I am unable to start a game. Upon further inspection the out hole coil and one other coil are locking on. I replaced the coil with a new coil and still experience the same issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Baby pacs are notorious for wiring issues related to the battery that was on the MPU. I'd start with checking all the harness connections at the boards. Also the Vidiot board may have battery damage that dripped down from the MPU.

Next I would go wire by wire under the playfield (be glad its not a full size pin). I have had weird things like locked coils and so forth caused by a bent light bulb holder touching a wire.

Not as much work as it sounds. Plus your game seems to be pretty close. Above all - double check everything and don't give up! :0)
