Firepower 2 pinball needs "Rom Reprogramming"! TNT Amusements

Heres a GREAT deal on Craigslist! I sold this game about 15 years ago for $899. Its now for sale on Craigslist for the bargain price of $1200...and is working and simply needs some "ROM Reprogramming!" A great deal for someone!! Who says pinball machines are going down in value?? Todd

Bah - it lights up! It's *clearly* working! :D
 
yes...its right before we switched to using Lithium batteries...(in late 1999), and it appears we sold this in 1998...so its very possible the batteries are the originals and never changed.

I picked up a Bally Power Play a couple weeks ago from a couple that bought it for thier kids in the 80s. First thing they told me was that the lights would come on but it hadnt worked in years. Naturally I asked the question and got the usual responce "It has batteries in it?". They owned it for 30 years and never had the backglass off it
 
How do you figure it's a ROM problem? Is it failing checksum during boot?

If it boots up then the ROMs work. If it doesn't boot up, it could be a thousand different things.

Todd's quoting the Craigslist post - clearly, the individual selling it has no clue what's wrong with it...
