Black Knight issue

<< < (2/2)

ChadTower:

Same paragraph says to measure the voltage right at the battery holder.  If that is low you know it's not getting enough straight out of the batteries.  I could see that being the case if one of the battery contacts is dirty, corroded, or a little broken.  Those original battery holders pretty much need to be swapped now on all but the cleanest boards.

Weird. After messing with it for a while last night I decided to play a few games since it was on and working and I hadn't played in a while. After I finished I turned it off, waited 10 seconds or so and turned it back on. Worked! No audit mode. I figured it was an anomoly and would test it again in the morning. Turned it on this morning, worked! The only thing I actually did last night was change the batteries but when I turned it on immediately after installing the new ones, it still booted into audit mode. Could it need time to juice up from the batteries? Who knows, it may go back to audit mode this evening when I test it. That's the frustrating thing about miraculous fixes, they could miraculously break again at any time because the problem probably isn't really resolved.
