Dig Dug Restoration by a Complete Noob
Pop Culture Portal:
Something was clipped from the harness at the connector for the PCB (does that make sense?) but I can't tell what color the wires that were clipped were.
Also, there is a number on the AR board that says "1160697-01." Am I right in assuming this is an AR II-01 board and that's the kind kit I need to rebuild that board?

First check the manual to make sure that's the right one. It may not be.
Pop Culture Portal:
Yup, the manual says A/R II. And I see all the caps and the Q2, Q3, and R29 on the board that Bob Roberts lists in his kit (Atari A/R or A/R II-01 Repair Kit (Caps+Q2/3+R29)).
So, doing a little research it looks like these Sanyos were for Nintendo games? Should I just buy a refurb'd GO7 like what was supposed to be in there in the first place?
ChadTower:
There are a bunch of monitors you could get but the G07 is as good as any I suppose. Local is always best with this stuff if you have anyone around. Here is a good baseline price. That's retail, keep in mind, so it would be lower from a random person.

That's why it looks like the video has been tied together into that larger molex to me.
Actually has two options now, the Sanyo setup AND the standard setup for more common monitors.
I pretty certain he doesn't need the inverter board because the chassis has the triple set of transistors and resistors that is normally "missing" in a Nintendo version. The Sanyo actually started out as "normal" monitors, they were modified to work with the Nintendo which they are more commonly found in. The inverter board is there to make the "modified" versions work with standard games.
