Recently picked up a non working Taito Space Invaders Cocktail, Japanese version. There is a toasted cap on the power supply. I've looked through all the schematics online but I cant seem to find the power supply schematics. I'm not familiar with this machine so I need to ask some questions. Taito seems to have put out several versions of this machine but I cant seem to nail down exactly which one this is. It's the three board version...I know that. It has a 13" B&W monitor with the color lens over top of it. The guy that I bought it from didn't have the manuals, keys or coin bucket. Basically my questions are this...in the back of the chute for the coin bucket there are 4 metal pins. Are the metal pins part of the interlock system? Do they all need to be pushed in to be able to turn on the game? Is the coin bucket metal that closed the circuit? Before I toasted the cap I tried pushing them all in and turned on the game, but nothing. I also checked all the fuses, they are all good.
I need the schematics to the power supply so I can replace the cap with the correct value. I looked at the schematics for the 3 board version but saw nothing for the power supply, am I missing it?
Please take a look at the pictures. I have a picture of the power supply and the location of the cap in question. I also included the coin bucket shoot with the pins at the back. Any jhelp on this would be appreciated.
