Hey Oz! TY for the post! Your just the person i'm looking for since you where the past owner of this thing lol.

The power cord snapped out the back of the machine. Looks like this has been messed with before. Theres 3 Ends 2 are black with 2 wires on each of them. and the other one that is blueish color In the Middle of the power cable.

Seems like this blueish one is black taped too one of the other black ones.
 
I never messed with the AC in that machine. I bought it in a non-working condition and all I ever did to it was replace a fuse and reseat some connectors on the power board. If the colors of the cord seem odd then you can use a multimeter to identify which wire is which.

Set your meter to read resistance then connect you meter to one exposed wire and then connect the other end to each prong, one at a time, until your meter reading goes low. This will determine which wire is connected to which prong. The round prong is the ground (green in the pic). The larger flat prong is the black and the smaller flat prong is the white.

If what I wrote doesn't make sense a pic will help me, or someone else, identify what needs to be done.
 
TY Oz for posting again. When i said you where the last owner i figured you had more of an idea about the machine since you owned it last.

Here's the problem i have ran into with this or anything arcade related recently. My Room Mate says sure i will try and help you with someone then he keeps putting it off . Becouse he does'nt really like me having these arcade Games in the house even though i'm the owner of the house.

I End up seeking help here or Wonderfull people like your self OZ and Dave that have came out and helped with Fixing someone that could'nt be fixed by this Jackass.

I will need help with Restoring a bottem on a dkjr but this is 1 choice at the moment.

I will try too take pictures of this cord but my cam sucks ass!
