I just recently acquired a Golden Axe arcade game and have a couple of question, maybe you can point me in the right direction. (I'm attaching pics for reference, sorry about the quality!) But first one is there is vertical lines one the screen but only during game play they are visible. How do I correct it? The game manual was in one of the locked cabinets and had no key. Only way to get to the locked cabinet was to remove joystick (joystick was already half unlatched anyway) and unscrew lock from inside. Both controls worked other than player 1 down & attack. Before that was done the buttons behind the coin acceptor was pushed out of curiosity (they where unlabeled - labeled test, service, & volume now) I found the player 1 attack button disconnected - reconnected it. I also found one of the metal prongs on the down on player 1 broken off. Where & what do purchase to replace that? (is probably why down on player 1 don't work) but after all that, I push all controls its not responding. I insert a quarter (I think it was on free play before because it was working). It just stands at insert coin or credit. I'm not sure if it was cause of the test switch being pushed or what, its gotta be something simple.

edited I checked the dip switch settings and free play wasn't set I think the previous owner had it set for only so many credits but still unsure will repost if i get that worked out. But still need help

got it set on free play. Attack button works but down on player 1 still doesn't because of broken prong that a yellow wire connects to is broken off. If someone could direct me to the part I need in the picture I uploaded that would be great. Still have to figure out the monitor problem with white vertical looking spots or lines. I know I should probably post that in the monitor section.
One more issue I also noticed is that the fan at the back of the machine did not come on. I also noticed that the screen will go completely blackish green color either when turning on or during game play at times. Right at the moment its when turning on. any ideas on that subject is appreciated as well.
