Want to correct my Gauntlet Legends wiring due to some hacks
Picked up this mint game over the weekend. Outside is close enough to perfect for me and the monitor is the best I've personally seen. It functions perfect too but I want to correct the wiring. This is my first real game wiring "un-hacking" and want to fix this right. It looks like they hacked the jamma connector +5 volts on top and bottom (White wires) and, gulp, wire nutted them. I looks like I need to get some molex connectors, pins, and crimper and I assume some extraction tools for this too.
Does anyone know what exactly I need to order to:
1. Fix the white wires completely by removing them (I have a spare working board)
2. Reinstall the proper Molex connectors to be correct and original
3. Any good pics of their unhacked set up?
4. Power is always hot; meaning the power switch at the back is always on. I'd prefer to have it work rather than having to yank out the cord whenever I'm not playing the game.
Thank you to demogo, ctozzi and others who've been super helpful so far. I don't like hacks and what to fix the game up proper.
