Anyone know if a power brick from an Asteroids Deluxe can be used in an Asteroids?

It isn't a drop in replacement but you can modify the harness that plugs into the brick to work.

You need to basically repin the 15 pin connector

Thanks Ian.  I knew the boards were interchangeable between the two (other than some of the switches being mapped differently), but I wasn't sure about the power supplies.  I've got some weird graphic issues on an Asteroids and I've eliminated everything down to either the monitor or the brick. Both were rebuilt, but the problems persists.  Picked up a couple of G05's this weekend, so I can se if its chassis/tube related.
