I posted this last night and it looks like it's gone. So here goes again. I put in this new lcd monitor and had the game working. Then it just died. I replaced a fuse and the power supply. What to do? Thanks in advance for whatever advice you have!

Check the white push button on the backdoor area. If it's not compressed enough (which happens at times) the game will not turn on.

Oh my God. I feel so stupid. I forgot that it was taped down. Ultimate DUH moment broadcast over the Internet. Thanks a lot. Problem resolved!
 
Not a problem, glad it's fixed. It's always the most obvious fixes that seem to get overlooked.

From the pictures it looks like it's too far set back in the cab? Maybe move it forward so the backdoor holds the button down?

Yes, and remember that you can PULL the white switch part out to keep the machine on while working with the door removed.

Yes, it took me about a YEAR before anyone told me this awesome tip..
Just PULL it out a little and it will stay on. I used to use tape to hold it down...
Arggghh, I was so happy when I learned that one!

Well I just learned something new! I used rubber bands to hold down the button instead when working on games.
 
You get double whammed when you have a game with 2 interlock switches,one on the back door and one on the coin door. You might remember one but forget about the other one. I think most of us have been their done that when we were newbys.:rolleyes:
