I have 2 Trons, one works (#1) and one does not (#2). I swapped Tron #2's game board into the working cabinet, and it played fine. Tron #2's power board had a lot of battery corrosion, but it works fine in Tron #1. The voltages at J3 & J6 connectors on the power brick read normal on both games.
When I put all of Tron #2's components in Tron #2, the fuse on the power board blows. Tron #1's power board in Tron #2 also blows it's fuse. The pictures below show a spare tron power board that does not work and Tron #2's power board (both are the same revision, Tron #1 has a C000 revision). It looks like there is a different component at R104 - not sure if that is a different type of resistor, but it gets real hot when I turn on Tron #2.
Monitor is only showing white raster and the game doesn't play blind in all cases.
My next course of action would be to swap power bricks, but that's not so easy with a Tron. Any ideas on where I should look next?
