Hi guys

Recently my popeye has developed a problem with its sound. Last week I was playing a game and all was working fine. Then during the game the sounds for switch hits stopped and just the background track played. Then during the same game the background track stopped and all I heard was the end of ball tune when I drained. Next time I drained I lost that sound too. After the game I switched it off, game it a minute and turned it back on. Still no sound. Today I turned it on and the sound was there but it only lasted a minute or so before all sound was gone again.
Any thoughts on how to fix this issue?? Anyone had anything similar happen?

Cheers

Try reseating both ribbon cables that start at the MPU. 4 connections on one cable and 2 on the other.
