First Timers Restoration of Neo Geo Single Slot

From what your saying i would say its the wire from the button to the jamma harness. The other thing to check is make sure the other side of the button is grounded (ie, put your meter on the ground and place the other end of the meter to another ground - ie, another buttons ground).

Thanks notroubleclubber will do. You guys are super helpful.
I'll write out a hole test method and get back in the morning with the results.
fullmetalchicken:
Left switch test - Beep
ground test - 106
live wire test - 0
Findings: All as expected
Male molex to button - Beep
Jamma to female molex - 0
Jamma to mystery board - 106
Jamma to mystery board out - 106
Findings: Issue with the first molex connection
Solution: temp fix cut wire from molex and unscrew wire from Jamma to mystery board in twist and all working... 1 player button :cheers:
this was quickly followed by another issue. :badmood: Turns out the joystick was not wired up correctly so after 10 mintues of moving clamps around left, right, and up are working down is not. :banghead:
But now I know how to do all the testing so tonight..well actually I'm touching up the paint. Then fixing the wire.
Thank you guys for all your help. :notworthy:

So I've been puttering around the cab just doing this and that mostly nit picking stuff, painting hidden surfaces, cleaning inside, removing the old padlock bolt, cleaning the cartridge bolts.
AND WAITING FOR MY :angry: PACKAGES TO COME IN STUPID CHEAP PAST ME!!!!!
When I realized I had no idea how to play any of the games that are on the multi-cart so now my mission is to track down all the marquees and move lists for all those games. So far I have 80 marquees and now trying to figure out the best way to keep this information. Has anyone ever made anything like this before?
