Im new to the arcade scene,
so this is prob a noob question, Do the Sega cabinets have a universal kick harness because i'm used to working on jamaa cabinets and they have a different type of cable for the kick harness and i'm reading about astro city cabinets and noticed that all Sega harnesses have the same end adapter. Are they all the same or different? Thanks

I believe the kick harness are wired different for naomi/Net city and Astro city.

Re: Does Sega use a Universal Kick Harness?
From the two Sega candies I've worked on, they're definitely not "universal".
The Astro City uses a 10 plug TE Amp connector whilst the Naomi Universal (and all subsequent cabs of that shape) uses a 15 plug TE Amp connector.
Astro and Naomi's will always be different though since the Astro is a passthrough due to jamma not having 6 buttons by default whilst in a Naomi, it's handled via the JVS I/O.

Re: Does Sega use a Universal Kick Harness?
There's an adapter available to use an older kick harness on Naomi Universal / Net City, so it's not that big of a deal. The pinout is just different.
