Sega Turbo Help

I think my Turbo cabaret may be doing the same thing, although I didn't have a monitor hooked up yet but it was making that kind of noise...

That noise sounds like the ambulance sound. Plus maybe the sliding on ice sound.
 
well changing to the files you sent me with a new Z80 chip changed the output to a static garbled screen with no sound, and sent the score displays crazy! then mixed the old bottom board with my other top board and now have a perfect board with no glitches in my caberet :) so the other board has graphic rom glitches on the bottom board it seems and seems that its 'locked up and not getting to the memory and all its showing is whats left on the memory????' that was friends diagnosis he will go thru it at some point and fix it, so not sure any other suggestions so far? appreciate the help so far, and will try the fully working board in the full size cabinet tomorrow and see if they wheel and that work okay, so if any needs any parts the full size will go, the actual cabinet is solid, side art is good just yellowed, thanks
 
Well, just got to messing around with mine. I've got the same sounds...just no picture. I changed out my power supply with a new switcher, and got really loud clicks that corresponded with a pulsating LED on the board. It got louder or softer as I played with the voltage. I'm not working really hard on this right now because I'm waiting to get a 2nd cab that I know of. I'm hoping that between the two of them I can get them working. Did I read that sometimes these chips have a pre-programmed "lockdown" over time. That's annoying. I don't know if I've got a power supply issue right now or what, but since this sound seems to be on several machines (minus my dead monitor), it seems like a pretty typical problem. If I can't get a working set from the other cab, I'll just swap with one of the repair guys.
 
well I picked up yet another one of these, the last upright I had which was fully dedicated apart from some hideous color scheme, had a 16" monitor with the proper bezel, this one has the 20" monitor and bezel, didnt realise they did that, anyway this wasnt painted lime green (that cabinet was stripped and trashed as no takers, do have all the parts from the inside thou!)

Anyway super happy now find a nice upright, so rather then keep both, I think one will go, Im leaning towards upright as love the artwork :)

With the latest one, it had switcher issues, wires broken, and garbage on screen and displays, it should have the ambulance sound and all zeros, what I found was the garbage on screen and goofy displays is caused by big z80 thing, tap it and worked, so removed that and fitted regular z80 and those roms and fine, power has to be spot on, as old switcher was low, very low, basically I have 3 boardsets, 2 cabinets and a mass of parts so now is the time to get rid of some of this stuff, also is the 16" monitor chassis the same as other sizes or all dedicated?

Do you happen to have a lower coin door for an upright and/or a red start button? I've got a non-working 16" now, and am picking up a working 20" this weekend. Neither have the red button or lower coin door.
