1  Arcade and Pinball Discussions / Beginner's Help Corner / Voltages going up and down on new switcher power supply on: September 01, 2016, 11:50:03 pm
Ok guys, so i put the new power supply in and tested it with the gameboard disconnected and the voltages are all over the place keep changing.  But the power going to the supply remains the same. Happened with first power supply as well.  Any thoughts?

Ok ive back tracked to the power supply, and with the board unplugged i couldnt get the 5v right it would kinda skip around but common number was 3v turned all the way up, then the 12v was at like 16 to 18 but also would go up and down. Board plugged in would read at like 0.7. Im guessing power supplys bad?

I tested the hot and it read at 1780 before going down i also tested the lead on the board bj it read 1900. The fuses dont blow. What would you suggest?

Ok finished all caps made sure they were all in right. Plugged everything back in and same thing but this time the speaker starts with a loud noise then drops off a bit, still no glow in tube, no picture, and no game sound

Thank you for all your words of wisdom . Ive got the cover off the flyback and took a vacuum to the cabinet. Ill pick up the mean green on my way home and will clean it and let it dry, ill work on it this weekend. I think im going to get a cap kit for the video and audio board since ive already got the monitor out
