Hey guys. At the request of a friend who's always hounding me to get it, I finally broke down and got my first CPS2 game (Marvel Vs. Capcom). Works great, however, I have a few interrogative statements. I am aware of these thing have a "suicide" battery, but what would I need to do or how would I go about replacing it before it dies? Never done it before. Also, is there a pinout chart handy that I can use to wire up the 3 kick buttons? I bought the A/B boards only. It's not a whole cab.

Thanks!
 
Awesome! Thanks, but how does the RAM not dump when you remove the original battery? Wouldn't it "suicide" as soon as you removed the battery or is there a time frame? I didn't see anywhere on the page that mentioned anything like that.

Good point- it doesn't mention. You do have about 10-15 mins before the charge drops out. I still swap it as quick as possible anyway, no less than 2 mins with no battery on board. I've changed dozens of these and haven't had any die on me yet.
