Picking up Pac man cab this weekend...
<< < (2/3) > >>
Lilwolf:
btw... quick note...

you CAN mame a cabinet without destroying everything!

1) get a pacman-jamma cable (assuming you want to plug that back in.) Can be made for a few bucks... and buy one for like 20+ bucks.
2) get a jamma harness and convert the cab to jamma
3) get a jpac + arcadevga

now plug / play for all vertical 4ways. 

If you plan on adding a few buttons... build a NEW control panel (keep the old one).  There was someone selling repos without art for like 15-20 bucks a bit ago. 

But in the end.. you can swap back/forth between pacman and the others.

I DEFINATELY wasn't going to hack the old CP. :) I am waiting to setup a time for pickup, I still haven't seen it yet, but if there is anyone that needs parts to fix a PacMan, subscribe here, I will post the parts that I salvage if need be. :)

I'll pay shipping on the PCB and send you back a trackball with mounting plate. I have been shopping for a Pac-board for a while. If you don't want a trackball then I can send a brand new Namco Reunion 4-way stick instead.

Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man are in overabundant supply, if isn't NICE with a capital N, then it isn't a big deal. 10 years from now you'll have trouble giving away Pac-Mans if they aren't mint.

It could be the fuses or fuse block... under $3 repair.
It could be a bad monitor ... $5 to $70 repair.
It could be a bad isolation transformer... $15 repair.
It could be a bad linear AC transformer.... $20 to $40 repair (Pac-man's can use Galaxian's ones... you need 120VAC in, and +7VAC and +14VAC output)
It could be a bad diode or capacitor or trasnistor on the pacman board to convert AC to DC.... $1 to $20 repair.
