I have a 1980 Williams Blackout (williams system 6) that I have had since October 2019.
Issue 1: It's been running great until about a month ago it starting booting without controlled Play field lights. A few flips of the power switch and it would boot up. Now I have the same thing happening with the GI lights on occasion and the displays. They sometimes don't work. I reseated all connectors.
Issue 2: It's got a remote battery holder and lately the game sometimes boots into audit mode. I've checked batteries and connection to MPU it seems to be good. Still when game is unplugged it loses memory.
Issue 3: This started today (9/8/2020). The voice board is not working when game is playing however if I hit the diagnostic button on the sound card all sounds and voice flies play as they should.
Issue 4: ones digit in player 1 and 3 flickers and sometimes is not lit then if I leave the machine on it's starts working like it should.
I believe the 40 pin was replaced last year my tech who refurbished the machine but I'm not sure. I have an extra one so I think I can replace. Is that where I should start with?
