HELP! Ms. Pac-Man / Galaga - Class Of 1981 cocktail machine repair

Post by juan9999 »

Hi,
I just bought a Ms. Pac-Man Galaga - Class Of 1981 cocktail machine.

Unfortunately, it has some issues that I would love your advice on how to fix:

1. The sound does not seem to be working. If I play with the volume knob, I hear static and it sounds like the amp is on, but no sound is coming out. I tried playing with the volume knob on the PCB as well. Also tried unplugging/plugging in jamma.
2. The two player button on ms pacman doesn't work- any idea where to get an authentic replacement?
3. The monitor only works if you turn it on, wait a few minutes, turn it off, then on again. Any quick fixes?
4. Coin slots only work sometimes; I've set it for free play but if there is a guide to get them working that would rock!
5. Where can I get replacement lights (the ones that light up the joysticks)

Thanks!!!!

Im no expert at CRT's but it sounds like a power supply issue on that Monitors Chassis. I would try replacing the capacitors on that chassis first. You probably can easily find a cap replacement kit if you find the model number of your chassis and look online.


As far as the Coin Slots, do the coins jam or is the game not even registering a coin fell through the chute.

Best of luck!
