Hi all,
I have a separate post trying to diagnose my issue (https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/picked-up-a-twister-knocked-out-dmd), but posting a help wanted add in case there is anyone in the area that could take a look in the near future. Recently picked up a working Twister but the DMD was out when I setup at my house.

I reseated all connections and replaced the display board fuse, still trying to figure out what's the issue. This is my first DMD machine and I'm not that electrical, so feeling my way around with help from the forum.

Anyone in the area with an understanding of Sega DMD machines (Repair person or experienced hobbiest?) that could swing by to try and diagnose the problem? I'm in Lebanon/Clinton area right by I-78 & US 31. I can pay or have Sam's Octoberfest on draft if you prefer.

Anyone?

Thanks for feedback all!
I had Paul out at my place this Monday, and he identified the problem as the Display Power Supply board. It looked like the board had been repaired in the past but Paul was only able to have limited success re-repairing the issue, and instead located a new replacement board for me online. Board was received today, I installed without issue, and happy to report that issue resolved!

I couldn't have identified the issue on my own and Paul was great, and I already gave him a heads up that his assessment was spot on. Will keep his number handy for future.

Thanks all!
