Checking switches: Question about "how"...
I have a switch problem on a Mr & Mrs Pac-Man... the right outhole.
It doesn't fail on the switch test ... even when I press it myself.
It appears to me completely dead.
I have tried cleaning the switch contacts (using a business card) but that made no difference.
Specifically, I was wondering about the testing instructions at http://www.pinrepair.com/bally/index3.htm#smatrix
... under the section titled "Testing the MPU Switch Matrix."
Step one says: "With the game off, turn OFF all MPU board DIP switches."
This pin has the Ultimate MPU PCB and I just want to be sure the DIP switches referenced above are the ones on the right side of the PCB... I guess they set game options... as opposed to the DIP switches for setting the actual game.
Yes, No?
Any other advice on testing a defective switch?
Thanks!
