its always had a little speaker hum, whatever. today i turn it on and it plays in attract for about 5 seconds then it blinks to a black screen covered in yellow S's and plays the ambulance sound affect.

another thing i never noticed untill today is the plug installed on it doesnt have a ground prong, just the two regular ones. i hope i didnt short anything...

i been meaning to do a resto on this thing anyway. i guess nows the time?

I know this doesn't help, but hearing the ambulance siren go off when a Turbo boardset is sick is pretty common. I wonder if this was a clever thing the programmers built in...
 
Yeah...happened in the one I had with a bad board set. I hear these things are a terrible mess to fix. If you can't fix it easily, I say throw money at it and ship it to El Dorado for repair or a board swap.
