Motordome Help again---Solved!
Hello again,
I am working on a motordome game where I had to replace the MPU board and eproms due to theowner shorting the power supply out.
After changing the MPU, the game worked allright except that the rollover switches above the pop bumpers were triggering multiple times. I tracked it down to the leftmost switch causing the most grief and changed it, also replacing the diode and the .05uf cap (with a .047, closest I could get)
Now I am getting all kinds of strange stuff. The MPU flash sequence hangs up between the 8th and 9th flash, then starts running. The display sometimes will blank out and/or freeze while scrolling across the displays. sometimes the pop bumpers fail to work or some switches don't trigger.
I am thinking that there are some connection issues on the MPU board, but didn't have time to check this further, and today was the first chance I had to work on it since a couple weeks ago.
I was very careful with the swich replacement, but this is freaking me out a bit.
Has anyone expienced issues similar to this on a 6803 system? thanks for any help you can give.
