Good afternoon, I'll have to order those fuses online. I can't seem to find a place locally that carries them. I'm sure Amazon must carry them. I'm also going to need the hinged arm that holds up the table top in a vertical position. Is there a place where everyone orders parts from? I might have to fabricate that part myself. So bperkins01, you're thinking I don't have to worry about the 105.8 VAC from pin 10,12. That's good to here. After I replace those fuses, I'll continue through the circuit and try to find where my voltage is stopping. Thanks for everyone's help. I'm determined to get this game working! :) |

If you really want to test it to be sure.. Using the info below and the schematic - Connect a 100w light bulb to pin 10 and pin 15 from an every day lamp (old fashion incandescent bulb) Jump pin 12 to pin 13 to put the two 60v windings in series (creating 120v) (this is exactly what is done in the wiring harness to get 120V to the monitor. Once your lamp lights up - test the voltages as you did before... now that there is an actual load .. it will all test very close to spec (60v, 120v, etc) If there truly is an issue with the transformer - you will see it with this test. Make sense? The remaining pins are specific to Centipede Pin 10 - 11 -> 30 vAC Pin 11 - 12 -> 30 vAC Pin 10 - 12 -> 60 vAC Pin 13 - 14 -> 30 vAC Pin 14 - 15 -> 30 vAC Pin 13 - 15 -> 60 vAC |
