Sega Cool Riders Wiring Diagram Request..
« on: August 28, 2017, 02:49:08 pm »

I was wonder, before i had to tear into my controller and do it manually, if someone already had a sega cool riders steering/button diagram?

Also, what USB to Arcade interface would be best to make it work?

Manual: http://www.gamesdatabase.org/Media/SYSTEM/Arcade//Manual/formated/Cool_Riders_-_1995_-_Sega.pdf

The steering control parts list is around pages 58-61, controls maintenance is around pages 66-70.

The archive.org "Sega Cool Riders" page here has a link to the wiring diagram at https://web.archive.org/web/20091222045711/http://www.segaarcade.com:80/pdfs/coolriders/Cabinet_wiring_diagram.pdf.

By "make it work", do you mean that you want to convert this cab to MAME?

If so, you'll need an analog encoder for the potentiometers.

There are 3 analog axes per player -- handlebar ("yolk" on schematics  :lol), throttle ("throt"), and brake. ("break" on schematics  :lol)

P1 controls are located lower right and P2 controls are located top center of schematic page 1.

See related thread here for analog encoder and reversable conversion suggestions. (please don't maim for MAME)
