further update with power on and board disconnected using the (music note setting for continuity) on my meter measuring from the power supply to the pin on the edge connector i have the following
my pin numbers ...
: pin 14 ground
: pin 4 -5
: pin 5 ground and -5
: pin 16 12v
: pin 14 -5
: pin 16 -5
: pin 18 -5
: pin 18 +5
: pin 16 +5
seems odd to me some pins can have cont at ground and also -5 ? and so on ?
all my pins are backwards to look at which doesnt help , ive managed to match wires ok on new edge connector put put the numbers on the wrong way round
so pin 18 ia actually pin 1 and so on to confuse further
...........
on my other midway the wires are in the same positions ?
when ive taken the cont readings today i havent got a gameboard installed and i wont . as ive just forked out alot of money with irongiant to have one fixed ?
meter readings again today from supply were :
-5 5.00
+5 5.01
12v 12.00
and on ripple setting
-5 0.00
+5 0.00
12v 0.01
when i did cont readings no gameboard was installed and i was taking readings from power supply to pin inside edge connector
i only have togo on the cabs i have before me , seems odd they both wired the same ? and neither work , just show a white screen ?
thing is too , i can only go on what the seller told me and he said one worked and used to play it then one day didnt work
so i persumed neither had been fucckered with ? infact i still dont know if they have / i cant see any loose wires and they all seem to be original wiring ??
anyway got a bog standard midway si they can show me pic of there edge conenctor please?
again all ive done is copied the pins and there spacings inbetween ? albeit with the edge connector numbers and letters upside down


wires are as follows from the top of the connector down :
red/wht pin no 18 on original edge connector
blu/wht
_
org/red
red
_
_
_
_
_
_
_
_
blk/wht
_
bwn/wht
_
white pin 1 on original edge connector
as you can see 2 wires from the top direction of the cab into the conenctor

and the rest from bottom of cab up into connector 5 of :

please help
