My Turbo has been working good lately, but I noticed that when I turn it on now the game gets stuck and doesn't load fully. It starts with random garbage flying across the screen, then it just gets stuck at showing the road. Nothing else loads. If I try to go into test mode a little bar pops up above the game and does nothing. So I can't go into test mode or play the game. I also can't put a credit in. The LEDs on the PCB light up and I reconnected all the wires and it still does the same thing.

Thanks
 
Update: I replugged everything once more and now it all seems to work. The monitor is even worse now (it needed a cap kit before but now it really needs it).

Another problem - After the game started working I thought I smelled smoke so I turned it off. I will investigate it more. More updates later
 
I am nitpicking here but rom-based systems don't load... How do you know the monitor needs a cap kit, what is wrong with it?

Sorry, I didn't know how to explain how it "loads." In other words, it just shows the road and nothing else. Everything seems to work now. The monitor has a color problem and it has "waves." I already bought a cap kit. I am going to do it sometime soon.
