My firepower has been running well for a while but it seems to have developed a couple of strange faults:
When a ball enters the right ball capture hole, it never gets ejected.
If I run the switch test, the switch in the hole is registering properly and if I run the solenoid test, it kicks the ball out without a problem. So can I assume the problem is in the CPU or is there something else I'm missing?
Also, while playing a game, hitting the game/credit button starts a new game and the current one is "forgotten". This problem could have been there before for all I know, I only noticed it by accident.
The board interconnect is a new one and all header pins were reflowed recently.
Most sockets are also newer ones. I may try to replace the remaining ones as they're the ones the PROMs are in.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!
