That's the thing, it doesnt work properly with just a button as Coin 1. If I have a button connected to the 'Coin 1' slot in the Jamma cable or I have the wire cut 8 inches from the Jamma connector, regardless, this damn thing registers a '1' value as if it is always activated. 'Coin 1' is in no way connected to the coin mechanism itself that I can see. Its weird that when I run a wire from the 'Coin 2' slot to a button it works perfectly, if I cut that wire and dont attach a button, it registers a '0'. That makes me think that somewhere in this game something else affects player 1's credits in some way besides the 'Coin 1' slot in my Jamma cable |

If you're registering a "1" with only a bare wire coming off the JAMMA harness, there's something in either the harness, or board, that is causing that "1". The harness is rather unlikely because it's about 7-8 pins from ground, IIRC. The first thing I'd check is the Coin 1 pin itself though. Is there anything near it that could be creating a connection somehow? (Solder bridge, another bare wire, etc...) Next, I would try disconnecting the harness, and slap a multi-meter onto the Coin1 pin, and ground. If you're getting connection, the problem is in the harness; if not, it's in the board. I don't know what would cause it though? If it is the board, I'd wait for the other one you have coming, and check it there. |

Thanks, you are the man. I'll do my best to check it out in the next few days, i'll come back if its problematic |

Unfortunately all I can offer is general troubleshooting. Maybe someone else can offer up some game-specific suggestions. |

Did you connect the wires to the N/C tab instead of the N/O tab? |
