I have a jamma wired cab with a nintendo monitor in it. The colors are inverted. No matter if the inverter board is used or not. How do i fix this ? I`m kinda clueless with this. thanx fred
 
Does your Inverter board have power going to it ?
(the little three pin plug)

Is the cable going from the Inverter board to the monitor chassis plugged into the "Invert Out" connector ?

i had a playchoice cabinet that had a monitor with no inverter board, yet the colors were inverted. it was a wg and was original to the cabinet..
 
Nothing is plugged into the 3 pin plug. The wires from the main harness are plugged directly to the chassis plug so nothing is going to the inverter board.

The inverter board has no power then. There should be a red wire coming from the chassis with a 3 pin plug on it. Once the inverter board has power you should be good.
 
Ok, there is no red wire with the 3 prong plug to the inverter board. Where should the other end be coming from ?
 
There is a single red wire coming from D214 R232 on the chassis. The other end is a 3 prong plug but it is plugged into the other side of the chassis(the small board behind the adjustment board at 1A.
 
That should be the right wire..... can you take a pic of what they have it plugged into ?
Does the three prong plug match the "little" three prong plug on the inverter board ?
And measure the voltage on that wire too.

It'll get it's ground through the video ground, so there won't be a ground wire or anything to look for.

If you can't figure out how to connect that 3-pin connector to the chassis, you can run a +12v line from your power supply to that connector (pin 3 I think) for power...
 
Ok, I took the plug off of the audio input & plugged it into the inverter board & colors are back to normal. Thanx guys for your skills & time!!!! The cab is a converted Pacmania so now all i gotta do is figure out what to put in it. thanx fred
