I finally got a chance to look at a Qbert my buddy is selling. The power supply board is shot as I see some burnt resistors and other burn marks and the only thing powering up is the marquee lights. The lower voltage led was lit on the board, but the 30v light was not. I hope it didn't take out the sound board as well. A quick search through the forum last night showed problems with these power supply boards, so i am going to change it out for a switcher from AS. I'm also going to get a cap kit for the sound and CPU board and the battery mod kit. I noticed on the back door when I opened it that there was a switcher installed already, but it was only stamped 5v I think. Is that a stock setup or has someone already been in this machine? I should have taken a few pictures so I could have a better reference rather than relying on my memory.
I only had a few minutes last night to look at it. I plan on spending a few more minutes tonight looking through it to see what else may catch my eye. Anything else I should look into with this during a first scan?
