Just picked up a Spy Hunter. I fixed the boot and screen issue, but now half of the controls do not work. Off the top of my head:

Steering Wheel
Gas Pedal
Oil Slick button
Coin chutes
Credit Switch

Everything else works except those. The chutes and credit switch work in test mode, but will not work in game mode, so I cant coin it up.

Help?

sounds like your absolute position board has an issue. Check the wiring to it, and to the controls. Also check for +5 and gnd on the pots. I think i've run into the won't coin up problem before, and it was related to the absolute position board problem. Well, in my case, it was a bad connector in the harness at the ssio. Fixed that so the absolute position was communicating, and the coin problems went away.
 
Could it still be an AP board problem even if the coin chutes are recognized in test mode but not game mode?
 
yes. i think its programmed to not accept credits if the ab pos isn't working.
