Data East "The Simpsons" Help with Score Display
Hey Guys, I need some experienced help on this please. I recently acquired a Simpsons Pin by Data East. The only thing at this point that isn't working is the digital display. I've read a lot of info on the web but I just have a few questions:
Mine is completely void of any sign of life, is this typical of the actual Glass Display being bad or possible other cause? The reason I ask is because a lot of the information I've read suggests that some individual parts of the display go bad more individually than all at once. I know I can buy a replacement display but $200 bucks is a lot right now and I'm not completely sure that the display is the entire issue here. I know that this display requires some high voltage but I am uncertain as the where or how to check for this, can someone please give me some direction? Thank you.
