Control Panel Not Functioning
jasonorme666:
Hello everyone.
I've recently had problems with my "The Simpsons" 4 Player machine.
Its a fully original and dedicated machine, and when I had it, it was working fine.
Slowly within the past year or so the controls have stopped working, and Now all I have working is 1 of the 4 sets of controls (Player 1).
I didnt know anywhere else to turn so I thought the people wire control panels for a hobby would be the best people to contact.
Does anyone know what my problem could be, maybe a simple fix?
Unfortunatly my knowledge is very limited with arcade machines, as I am fully self tought with them.
But if anyone can help, I would be most appriciative.
Thanks alot and I hope you can help.
Kind Regards
Jason A Orme

Were the individual player controls going out completely one at a time? It could be faulty ground wires. The groun wires are daisy chained so if it goes out at the base you could lose all buttons/joysticks on the chain.
If that didn't make sense I can slow it down some. Did you get that?

In what order did stuff start going out?
Q*Bert_OP:
1. Check/Clean the JAMMA harness and edge of PCB.
2. Check power supply for even +5v and +12v
