Got me a complete but dead Battlezone from Nocashvalue from the warehouse raid. Thanks Bro... you're awesome!!! Just got it to my house today to start tinkering with it.
Plugged up... nothing.
Drill out locks, pull out the interrupt switches, and we have power and neck glow, PCB LEDs... but no image, and no coin up.
Just about to measure +5VDC when R29 starts to smoke. Try a spare ARII board, R29 starts to smoke again...
Do the 5V sense mod and re-install. No smoke, but still no coin up or image. Measure 5VDC and only getting 4.60 VDC... now it's bedtime... that's all I can do tonight even though I want to keep going...
