I rebuilt my Pacman G07 and got the wiring wrong on the voltage regulator. After sifting through all of the KLOV posts on the subject and using the flow chart, I was able to bring it back to life.

Here's a link to the full repair log. Hopefully it'll help somebody in the future.

Long story short, after I wired the voltage regulator wrong, something burned up and my B+ voltage was stuck at about 166 which was triggering the over voltage shutdown circuit. The adjustment pot did nothing at this point.

Replaced voltage regulator and wired it correctly this time.
Replaced X901 and X902.
That reenabled the B+ pot and came up with +108V. Adjusted it as close to +120 as it would go and now it's fine.

Just wanted to post to thank all those who helped me fix it, even if you didn't know you were helping me. The old KLOV threads are a great resource to have out there!
