Preferably a Jump Bug, because I'm going to make it one. I live in Fargo, ND. Thanks!

Doesn't a section of Arcade Shop have black and green?

Okay guys I got a multimeter and fuse F501 is blown. This is the soldered fuse on the chassis. The flowchart says it's either the HOT, the diodes(caused by no isolation transformer which I didn't do), or the flyback which is very rare and doesn't have any cracks. The HOT tests good, so I don't know what to do with this thing. Should I just shotgun it by replacing both the HOT and flyback? Thanks

I installed the cap kit today and it changed nothing. All the fuses on the bottom of the game are good, but I have no way to test if the fuse on the monitor is good. What could be going wrong? I feel like it should be working because it still pops and makes the high-pitched noise but it doesn't. Help?

Do not leave it plugged in at all times. Turn it on only when you want to play it

My 4900 in my Galaga died yesterday. No clue what is wrong with it. When I turn it on, I get the normal popping sound, and the high pitched noise like it's on, but nothing ever comes up and it plays blind. Ordered a cap kit from Ian, figured it was a good place to start. Is there anything else I might need? Anyone know why it's dead?

Start with a cap kit because it will fix future problems and might fix this. Cap kit is always a great place to start. If its still there afterward, we can help you out.

Saying it was a steal was an understatement, it looks beautiful

What about the DK?

What's with the Asteroids control panel? That is definitely not original
