I picked up another Tempest with little knowledge of it's status.
Here is what it is doing...
1) Both player 1 and 2 buttons light and blink.
2) When plugged in, there are some "clicking" or "knocking" noises that happen.
3) Red light on board and on monitor low voltage stays on. I DO have neck glow.
4) Every so often the monitor flashes a little bit of the game picture. (colors look great) LOL!
5) No coin up.
6) No sound.
I figure I am going to start at the power supply and test all the connections. Other than that, does anyone have any thoughts on these "symptoms"?
I followed this video and everything checked out fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1pVTzEF3ZA Although I was at 15+ rather than 14+ on DC.
One thing was that the Sound Board read at 10, rather than 5, which is what the video suggests (5).
