I got this PP from a guy in NE philly. He said i guy was picking it up that day, but NEVER did, so he called me back the next day (sunday) and said it was mine if i can come get it.. I did.. He said he didnt know what was wrong with it. He said it just STOPPED working. He said he checked all the fuses and he thought it might be a board problem..

After i got it home and cleaned the crap out of it. I found a wire that was NOT connected to the bridge under the power supply,. After i simply pushed the connector back on, i turned it on and WHALA... IT WORKS!! Heres some pics of it.. It never made it into an arcade. The guy bought it up right like 20 years ago and its been in his home every since...

thats a really clean control panel! I thought I had gotten a good deal with my PP that I got for $50 but yours is much nicer! nice job! make sure that fan is blowing! it gets hot in there
 
Wow, that's a great buy! Imagine what the seller might have asked for it if it was working! Nice stroke of luck, sometime it comes with this hobby. Enjoy!

yeah there is 2 fans. One by the cage and there is another on the left side down buy the powersupply... Is this one suppose to run as soon as you plug the game in?? As soon as i give my surge protector juice, the fan in there starts, then when i turn the game on, the other fan kicks in (the one for the pcb cage)...

just wondering...
