So, I have exhausted some resources trying to figure out why a track and field is not booting as in nothing from cpu.
Here is what I have verified and checked.
Power is good at 5.18vdc at the board its 4.8vdc.
Replaced cpu socket verified all pins back to pcb trace.
Replaced main rom set sockets pins verified
Have test rom v1.1 installed at location 5A
Check for clock signals at cpu.
Reset Barking..
I even cut trace to allow reset to remain high state.
It just seems like the cpu would be an issue but I swapped for known good one and still same issue nothing on addr or data lines.
verified data and addr buffers out of circuit test.
here is a pic of main pcb I have and the image when it comes on.
