CHICKEN RESTORE LIKE A ROBOT (Berzerk) *IT LIVES*

<< < (8/30) > >>

Ipac VE. $20 and 2 minutes of wiring = DONE. If you need to justify the money, skip lunch a few days and have cereal.  ;D

ChadTower:
Ironically, I have an Ipac 4 sitting around, but don't want to use it.  I think at this point I might just have to go with your suggestion.

I can't seem to ID the specific connector on the CP harness.  Asked at KLOV, got a specific answer, but after googling the item it clearly isn't correct.  I'm going to have to re-pin that connection and swap housings to something I do have.  I ordered a whole variety of Molex .062 housings and an extractor tool last week, which would be perfect, but I'm a complete d-bag and forgot pins.   :banghead:  I do have some larger Amp Mate N Locks left over from the Tank II (which I really need to get back from the shop).  It's overkill but it will do the job nicely.

I did sorta want the keyboard hack but the common ground wiring may be a blocking factor on that anyway.


EDIT:  Bah.  Ipac VE appears to be USB only.  This is a dosmame setup.

You're going to fix the Berzerk anyway, and the IPAC4 is just lying around.  Use it and reuse it in another project when you fix the berzerk.

I was just coming to that conclusion about an hour ago after I discovered the Ipac VE isn't dos compatible.  At least it's incentive to get the boards fixed sooner than later.

ChadTower:
Replaced both CP harness connectors with new Amp Mate N Locks last night... new pins, too.  Couldn't seem to get the pics off my wife's camera this morning, though, so I'll get a pic up tonight or tomorrow.  Next up is whipping out the Ipac4 and wiring it up.
