Title: Double Dragon Power Problems
Post by: sanousuke on February 28, 2009, 01:33:49 am: I've had this game for years, ever since I was little. About a few years after I got it, the transformer started arching. My dad tried to fix it, but he couldn't find a replacement anywhere. Just recently, I ordered a part from Bob Roberts (Excellent Dealer) and I installed the new Transformer. I put it all back together, hoping it would work, but the only thing that turns on are the lights.

I was expecting to at least hear sound or something, but it has been many years since I've messed with it and maybe something else broke over time?

I'm hoping someone here might have just a little idea to what the problem could be. Power Supply? Not wired correctly?

Could be both. Post pictures of your current power set up.

More info coming soon. Thanks.

Maybe I'll try it again later.
