Happy Holidays
Finally seeing life in my Galaga cabaret for the first time. Very exciting, except the fire button doesn't work, looking for suggestions on where to go next:
+ switch has continuity
+ position 7 on the rapid fire board has continuity with pin 11 on the edge connector
+ I get continuity when the switch is activated in the two positions noted in the manual on the rapid fire board connector
- I'm not getting 5v at the switch. Should I?
- Not sure the best way to verify ground on the fire button switch? I'm not finding ground by poking around elsewhere on the control panel, not sure if that's a problem or not
- I'm a little lost on the pinout for the edge connector I see on online (KLOV, Mike's Arcade, e.g.), doesn't seem to match the positions in my edge connector. Is the cabaret unique or am I missing something?
- a really old post suggested checking RM6/RM7. For context, just had my board bullet proofed including the older style resistor packs so I'm skeptical that's it, but wondering the best way to rule that out. Visual inspect of those resistors looks good.
