    None off the 1k to 10k lamps works. I think the last owner mentioned somthing about that he tried another driverboard and still the same. Crimps looks good from the eye. One of the lampholder is really bad.
    Lamps are in a row on a metal bracket so thought is to change them to single lampholders. Do I just change and take the cable that are solder on the bracket(ground?) and solder it on one of the single lampholders and then a cable to connect them all? Where should I put the ground on the lampholders then?

    Are your lamps getting power? Stick one lead of your DMM to one of the bulb socket mounts, and the other lead to a known good ground. You should get 6 volts. If not, it's a power issue, and you should probably check for broken wires (assuming other lamps are getting power and working). From memory, System 1 games don't have a matrix like other games from the same era have. Check your grounds. I believe that lamps are clustered into separate grounding connectors as well. Without a manual/schematics, it's difficult to tell exactly where your problem lies.
