I have an Upright Pole Position II with the small board behind the steering wheel out. I ordered a replacement here last year but when I went to install it months later (oops), it was the wrong board. Anyone here able to troubleshoot or repair this for me?

Pole Position is one board set I have yet to work on.

post a pic of the defective board. I don't think there is much to that board but would like to see to be sure.
 
Long delay here but I have pics. The single board is the original and the dual is the replacement next to it. Can anyone work on these for me?

The single board is the same board Atari used in their trackballs. Are you sure your opto board is bad? It could be something on the motherboard.

I don't think that board is bad (unusal for a Pole Position I know) There is not much to them and a good cleaning is usually all that board needs. There is Several problems with that game in particular. In fact if you do a simple search you will find several threads about Pole Position.

I suspect Edward is correct and it is something on the motherboard.

Many of the boards I have repaired have had parts replaced near the actual problem but others never found the problem.
