Tekken 5 - Namco 256.
Everything is working great except for the card readers. There is two card readers on the left and the right under the monitors. I pulled out about three dollars worth of quarters and arcade ticket subs out of them. Now they are clear, it seems like the card goes in and hit some kind of button.

I checked the card reader manual http://www.bandainamco-am.co.uk/files/53
In the Card options, no card readers are being detected.

There is three metal panels on the front of the arcade. The middle one with the card reader appears to be getting power. I probably found like 200 cards inside the bottom of the cab. However, I have found no way to activate this and get it to dispense a card.

I also noticed the lights are out for the coin door. This makes me believe all the issues could be related to power. Perhaps I try a new power supply? Or do I need a new card reader?
Any advice would be helpful. Thank you!
