Yes, the adjustment and led are on the power supply. The only meter I have was a free one I got from Harbor Freight. I hope it works right. |

Testing with my meter causes the led on the power supply to go out but the game still works after turning it off and on. not sure if i did anything wrong. my meter is a little strange with a 200mA max on most test modes and then a separate 10A max mode that still fails. I should probably buy a proper multimeter anyway. I wonder wow much it would cost to replace the power supply and the isolation transformer and all the old wiring, then reflow the adjustment pots, and all new caps. Get this thing ready to mame. Actually I wouldn't want to replace the power supply if I'm going to mame it would I. I've been practicing my soldering on some old junk I bought for a few bucks at the trade it store. This monitor looks like its going to be a major pain though, with two separate boards with little jumper wire stitches. Not the kind of thing you want to learn on, but I'm pretty determined to fix this lemon and mame it. |

It sounds like you meter wasn't set for metering dc voltages. I don't see why you'd think the power supply and iso transformer need replacement. especially if you're going to Mame it, whereas you won't need the power supply any more. |

I guess it just looks old and crusty to me. Does it look good to go to you? Seems to work alright. |
