Ms Pacman full size upright:

At power-up, picture frequently does not appear. If I push the 1 or 2 player button, I can hear the game and use the joy stick, but no picture.

Then, when I least expect it, the picture will appear on a future power-up. Help!
 
Sounds like you either have a bunch of cold solder joints on your chassis, or a loose power connection to the monitor. Possibly even a bad fuse clip for the monitor power at the bottom of the cab (common issue).

Inspect all of your fuse clips (there are 6 of them) and replace any that won't stay tight on the fuse.

You should probably have the chassis rebuilt professionally - or do so yourself if you can.

Also, then next time this happens, you could try going to the back of the game and wiggling the power connector to the monitor to see if that makes it come on....


OH, and welcome to the forums...
