hi everyone im baz from australia.
finally after 20 years i decided i should once again own a spacey machine lol
scooped one off ebay...
here the short story...
keeps blowing 5 AMP fuse...which is located next to the transformer...
there is 4 fuses in total.. its the last being the closes to the transformer..
keep in mind this is a taito cabinet and not the midway.
all voltages ok.. +5 -5 +12
i disconnected everything.. fuse doesnt blow.. hooked back up monitor and fuse still ok.
yes as soon as i hook up the pcb the fuse blows
here is what i dont understand.. the fuse that keeps blowing.. i traced it back to the power supply board as ground....
by the way the monitor is showing wavey verticle lines.. even when the board isnt plugged in.. is this even normal for a black and white monitor?
any spacey techs or restorers who have gone through the technical issues your help is deeply appreciated.
ps i can supply pics if i need to.
