Before I go any further through the circuitry, I would like to establish that these are the correct voltages that I need to supply all the electrical components. And so far, according to the schematic, it appears that my voltages are off. I'm surprised that there isn't anyone with a cocktail table that can confirm what I have so far is correct or not. Frustrating.

MikeA answered this in reply#44 - Your 100v is correct.
The cocktail version of Centipede has a different power brick (and schematic) than the upright - that explains the variations from the other power bricks.

I went back and looked at your numbers - at this point - your issue is not in the power brick.
Schematic shows 10 - 12 = 100v, 10- 14 = 120v

If you have no power to ANYTHING with it plugged in to the game - I would try not plugging in the 6 hole connector to your harness and keep it on bypass. You may have an open circuit on the interlock switches.. which would mean - nothing worked..
Make sense?
