My Ms PAC upright crashed and rebooted a few times while playing the other day.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
 
The first thing to check on any Pac/Ms Pac cabinet that is doing that are the fuses and the fuse holders.

The factory fuse holders are brass and tend to corrode and to loosen their grip on the fuse. If you have those types of fuse holders still in it then replace them with ones you can buy at Radio Shack.

every PAC i get, first thing i do is change the fuse holders

but i think the connector to the game board is the problem

if it were my game, i would very, very, very carefully move the wire harness near the connector up a tiny bit to see if the re-setting goes away. if it does then the connector needs to be re-pinned

the actual plastic connector is ok, it's the metal pins inside that weaken and dont allow proper electron flow
