ok got a xenon,
did a shop out for it, it now works good and i tested it about 20 games before moving it to a location, as soon as i get it there the tube eject hole starts not working intermittedly.
but it works all the time on power up and test, but in game mode it will show the bonus you get, but then stall out and not eject, but its like the program is not moving on?
just to be sure i checked the coil, the diode, the coil wire and diode connections to coil and to backbox, all ok
then to kind of shotgun the prob, i sanded and then cleaned with eraser and cloth all chip legs on the cpu, and all pin headers, as well as resoldered all pin headers on cpu and driver, prob still there!
to top it off i remember 20 yrs ago i had another xenon with pretty much the same problem and i never found what it was with that one !
any idea's?
i am considering replacing the cpu with the new style, but since im really not sure whats happening that might not fix it.
