  1. I have a feeling that you and I have something in common when fixing these
    machines up. That is - you always think you're done and then find a small
    imperfection and want to fix it. I would have replaced that cord before
    even plugging it in. You are braver than me,sir.

  4. Thanks John. Last night I took the board out again and took the layers
    apart again. This time I seen a small transister with some light browning
    on solder side of the board so I'm assuming it's bad and the cause. It took
    a while to find one using google but I ordered a 5 pack as that's the
    minimum I could find. Hope it works. From china so hopefully in a few weeks
    I'll know for sure. Love your videos ! Keep em coming. Thanks again for
    your time and help!

    I think the cabinet probably had a harness they used for other games so the
    wiring was standard and included -5v even though the board didn't.

  6. Yeah. Your video defiantly shows the blue wire connected to the -5v and you
    even said it as you were doing the ps swap . Weird as the pinout list shows
    nothing for the -5. I disconnected my blue wire all together and the game
    is the same. Plays great but no sound. I can't figure out if that wire is
    for sound and something is bad on the board" all looks clean and good " or
    if it's a wire that was connected from factory to the ps but it didn't do
    anything . Lol this is driving me crazy!

  7. The blue wire in the 6 wire harness looks like it's going to the -5v 1a I
    traced mine back to the "v" on the blue adaptor that connects to the second
    adaptor that connects to to board. That seams to go no place as no trace
    lines are on the board from that pin

    For Commando? I just checked the pinouts and it looks like Commando doesn't
    use -5V.

  12. Sry for triple post. Tried to hit space on my phone. Any how my manual and
    any I found online don't have the -5v listed to ether connector and I can't
    get my sound to work. Game plays great and looks great. Just no sound. Mine
    is currently connected to the "v" on the 56 to 44 pin adaptor but when I
    look at the adaptor , no trace at all from that pin .??????? Just bought
    the game from craigslist and it's my first

  13. Can you tell me where your -5v wire goes?

    This seems reasonable to me. I would say no. 15v is a little high but I bet
    it isn't used for anything. I'd have to look at the schematic. My guess is
    that you are fine.

  15. i just tested my PSU on my MK2 and i get a even 5v on my +5 and i get 15v
    on my 12v and i get 4.71 on my -5v should i replace it?

    The monitor does not run off the DC power supply. The monitor gets its AC
    from the Isolation Transformer.

  17. on your video here , how are you able to get the monitor to come on when
    the power supply is bad? Isnt the transformer that the monitor runs off of
    connected to the power supply? what am I missing .../
