someone mentioned you can plug a Bump and JUmp board into a Burgertime game...I tried this tonight...boards have same two connectors that appear to have the same connections...when smaller connector is plugged in, I can get a instruction screen up...but when larger connector is plugged in, power supply shuts right down....any ideas??

From another post:

Warning: Numerous sites have hosted an incorrect pinout list for Burgertime.

Burgertime and Bump n' Jump (Both DECO, both licensed by Bally/Midway) used virtually the same connectors... all but one key piece.

This linked one has the correct information for Burgertime, but is wrong for Bump n' Jump.


36 Pin Connecter

Solder Side | Parts Side
--------------------------------|-----------------------------------
+ 12 V | A | 1 | + 12 V
----------------------------|---|---|-------------------------------
+ 5 V | B | 2 | + 5 V
----------------------------|---|---|-------------------------------
GND | C | 3 | - 5 V
----------------------------|---|---|-------------------------------


Pin 3 should be -5 on a BurgerTime. Pin 3 should be GND on Bump n' Jump. If a BNJ board is connected it will short your -5 to GND and either shut down or burn-out the power supply. I submitted a correction to Mike's Arcade which did update it on their site.

Which is why I would think QuarterArcade's JAMMA connector has a pull apart connector on the -5 line at pin 3 as shown in this pic:

Zoar is like Bump n' Jump too (and you'll still find incorrect pinouts floating around).
Just cut the trace going to pin 3 on the PCB so it is NC (that extra GND is redundant and unnecessary). Then you can safely plug your Zoar/BnJ board into BurgerTime.
 
Why would you want to do that?

I mentioned it to todd.. The reason is I have a bump and jump and would like to switch it to play burgertime occasionally.

thanks for the info on B&J wiring. Since I want to pulg burgertime into a B&J cabinet. It looks like I need to put -5 on pin 3.
