Lets get some more info. Is it an arcade cab with an arcade board or MAME and a computer? It helps to specify what you are trying to fix. ;) |

I am going to MAME it eventually, but I wanted to have a few weeks of regular Tekken action going first. Buttons aren't working for players 1 or 2 other than: -Start buttons work -Player one kick button works -Player 2 Punch button works -Player 2 Joystick Works Player One joystick is also messed up. The joystick is sunken down a bit and presses the switch to make the character jump. I added pictures to my photo album here...are any of these helpful? http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a259/musician1/Arcade/ |

Pics of the inside wiring would be a good start -- inside the control panel and the harnesses that plug into the gameboard. Here is where you can get the manual, which includes description of the various tests, including switch tests. http://arcarc.xmission.com/PDF_Arcade_Manuals_and_Schematics/Tekken%20Tag.pdf Do you have a multimeter available to you ? --- End quote --- I do not have a multimeter but my friends are electricians and said they can help me in a week or two... I just don't want to wait that long ;) I do have a copy of the manual, but I can't activate the switch test because the button to select the switch test is not working. |

It would really be kinda silly to troubleshoot this without a meter. If I were you, I'd go get a cheapy meter. Its appears that you have a stuck switch and probably some kinda open condition. the best way to troubleshoot is to go through with a meter and also visually look through for shorted wires or disconnected wires. If you can find where the signal common for the controls first goes, you may wanna disconnect that and see if the constant jumping stops, just in case its a board issue (though I would definitely think its not) |

Now I just need to figure out what I am doing with it. |
