well, never thought I'd be posting in the pinball forum.
we were moving games around tonight and I needed the breaker where the pins were at turned on and noticed something rather peculiar on Jurassic Park that it didn't do the dino growl and play the music during what would ordinarily be the T-rex diagnostic. it made a strange click, and faintly hums and the DMD is completely blank.
am I looking at a popped fuse somewhere, or did the MPU(?) crap out?
I noticed lately while people were playing it that the background music would completely go out and it would play that power-on growl sound repeatedly probably when the ball was hitting targets/kicks.
and as I predicted, something bad was bound to happen sooner or later based on that disappearing music issue.
any advice would be nice, otherwise I know of a guy somewhat close to me that was a Data East tech or something along those lines, but if I can somehow fix this myself for experience that's even better.
thanks
