Title: Jamma Harness Question - Noob building first Bartop
Post by: Gluyys on January 22, 2014, 07:52:42 pm
Hey all, I am a noob here and have been working on my first Bartop Build. It is a simple Jamma 60-1 multi-cade, figured I would start small and work my way up to bigger and better games.

But to the point, there are a lot of wires on the Jamma harness that I am not using (like coin door, 2 player buttons, ect.). And in an attempt to conserve space and make wiring my cab easier. I was wondering if it is okay to disconnect the extra wires (disconnect the pins out of the harness, not just cut them off).

I can't really see much being wrong with this. But I figured I would ask to make sure I don't mess anything up before I start disconnecting a bunch of extra wires.

I appreciate anyone's help! And if you have a sweet bartop build that you completed recently, I wouldn't mind a link to check out your work also!

Thank you,

-Tyler

Snip away, you could always re solder if needed. My last 3 jamma projects have left me with so much left over wire, next projects I'm just gonna order up some edge connectors and make my own.


good day.

Awesome! Thank you very much for the quick reply!

Yeah, only need maybe 1/4 of the wire in the harness lol
