Just picked up a pacman (converted to touchdown fever) off craigslist today, it wont turn on. they said it hasn't been used in 20 years. I've changed the fuses and the power supply and nothing. any ideas of what i should check next?

My brother does tech support for medical equipment. Sadly, this question is as far as most of his calls need to go.....Is the power cord plugged into the wall?
 
Is the back door off? Check the interlock switch and make sure its working. If you have the back door off you need to push the switch in.
 
Do you have a meter? Where does the power end?

Is the new power supply putting out anything?

Do you have power on either side of the fuses?

Looks like they converted Pac Man into something else.

Check for 110v on the terminals of that power supply they added into the bottom of the cab. It's not a standard Pac power supply but rather an aftermarket one.

If you have 110v in check for +5v out. If nothing, replace the power supply.

If no 110v check those 2 fuses on the bottom left side of the inside of the cab. If they are good then follow the wires backwards to see where the issue is.
 
i got it working, i replaced the door switch and it started right up.
