Title: newbie! What do I have?
Post by: underbugguy on December 31, 2010, 04:01:47 pm

Hello, I am a newbie to the arcade world of repair.  I have a Ms Pac man 1981 Midway. I had it working and I left it on overnight and the next day it was dead.  I have checked all the fuses and they are all good.  I have checked the voltage on the transformers and they seem good also.  Being new I didn't know where to check the voltage on the picture tube so I assumed that was the problem. 

like a dummy I jumped on the first TV board I found on eBay and of course it was wrong.   :angry: My fault I need for someone to tell me what I have. The Old parts are pictured below it has T&E on the board and does not match any of the numbers on the schematic that I have with the machine.  All help will be greatly appreciated.
