My BitKit2 is no longer recognizing when I press P1's or P2's second action button.

So in Scramble or Super Cobra, I can't bomb the ground.

It used to work, but it's been a bit since I played that cab.

I tested continuance, and the buttons register when closed. I've tested at the button, at the molex connector, and back at the jamma connector. Continuance beeps when pressing the button, regardless of where along the wiring I test.

If I throw in another Jamma board, the 2nd action button works fine.

Is there some way I've accidentally disabled the 2nd button in the BitKit2 menu somewhere? If so I couldn't figure out how to undo it.

I'm hoping I'm just over looking something simple.
 
Sorry missed your post originally on Friday. It sounds like an input buffer went bad, if you go into the Options->Controls menu, and test either P1 or P2, does the display always say "button2" ? That would mean the input is stuck low, and probably the buffer is the problem. It is an easy fix for me, but you'll need to send the board back to me.

I'll send you a PM.

For P1 Button 2, it doesn't register, and for P2 Button 2, it always says "button2".
 
Got my BitKit2 back from @CraftyMech today, and everything's back up and working.

Thanks so much for the great product support

While testing out button 2, I managed to pass Scramble and loop back to the beginning for the first time. Woo!

Awesome! Now you are ready to try Scramble Remix (the download link is in the BitKit2 app -> Games page, click the 'Remixes' button).
