Ms Pacman/Galaga Cocktail Arcade//side 2 not working

On the internet ok is that all better now no need to sware

Hello: stuck switch means, a microswitch from the joysticks or
push bottoms or the coin door switch, check 1 by 1 manualy
if you don't hear a click after you push it, that switch is stuck.
Good luck...
Miguel.

Hello: You want replace it for a 4 position or 8 position
4 position work better for some old games

Hello: first thing is check the 5V+ 12V+ -5V in the power
supply, sometimes when the power supply goes low or
high cause that problem, other thing that you need check
is the connector for the logic, sometimes contacts get
black, use a eraser to clean the contacts, the last thing
is reseat all chips in the logic, the ones that are in sockets
Thank You..
Miguel

HI Kristen,

IF you can "play" the game blind, that shows the game board is working fine.
The issue can be in the monitor. That can be many reasons there is no picture .Check all plugs and connectors. Make sure the back of the CT is plugged in. Power to the monitor is present. Do you have amanual for the arcade? You should be able to find one online.

Do you see the picture tube lit up, not on the screen, but in the back of the neck of the tube? (Orange glow from the filament)

I"d suggest that you seek out a qualified service person for the game, if you are not familiar with working on electronics.

There are fuses in the cabinet power supply I believe, check those. Could be something as simple as the fuse going to the monitor.

Nice machine, hope you get it going.

Look up your local coin op amusements vendors that provide equipment to local bars etc, They may be helpfull as they deal in these repairs everyday.

TRY TO GOOGLE IT?

Check all fuses and power supply to the board. The monitor uses a seperate circuit, thus comes on independently of the board.

Check all plugs to the monitor, and all grounds. You should be able to get a manual online of this unit.

Open the front coin door and look for a slide service switch, It is set the wrong way in service mode.

Use the joystick controller's right and left to select options, and then use either one of the buttons to make your selection. The button with 1 human stick figure next to it is the Player 1 button, and the one with two stick figures is the Player 2 button. Unless the defaults were changed on that machine, 1 quarter is required for 1 player and 2 quarters are required for two players. I haven't used one of these machines since the original from 1982 to 1986. I can't believe it, but Namco actually has put a PDF of the service manual for this unit on their website:

Have fun! I would love to have one of these on day.
