Hi there. I just picked up a sprint 2 today. Has ben sitting in a farmers basement since the mid 90s.
When plugged in it would make sounds, sounds would change with any switch input. Come to find out it was in test mode. I turned off the test switch.
I can now coin it up and it plays blind. Heres the kicker, i have neckglow and the face of the tube does glow a whiteish haze, can tell its on.
There was a 1 amp fuse on the chassis that had blown that i replaced, it has not re-blown.
At this point in time i am kind of stuck. How so i tell if this is a monitor problem or a pcb issue? THere is also some mouse poop/pee/corrosion on the pcb.
Im pretty good with newer games but black and whites are a totally different animal to me.
