I've just installed a Mario Bros harness that I bought from ebay as the original was mostly missing / hacked up (as it was converted to something else). The auction said it was complete / unhacked but of course that is not the case, both control panel harnesses are wrong. I am starting to think maybe none of it was originally for Mario Bros but with some original connectors and wiring still in the cabinet I've been able to wire it up minus the controls, power for the lamps and coin 2.

As dumb as it sounds I am trying to wire it up as original as possible rathen than just bodge the last few connections, does anyone know if coin 2 was ever connected at the harness or did Nintendo just connect up coin 1 twice? my edge connector for coin 2 pin doesn't have a wire.

Lastly the +5v for the lamps in the coin door is not connected and I cannot see how it would have been, again don't really want to bodge it and would like to know where it originally connected if anyone could check for me.

I've attached a picture (not mine) but it shows what I have circled but then about half way down the harness the wire for +5v isn't connected to any thing.



It's possible it's a Mario Bros harness but not for a widebody and they're different? there's a bunch of earth wires but it seems over kill when the cabinet has all those green straps?
