Test for voltages and see what you have to J1 and from J2 on power supply board in the back box. Leaving connectors plugged in, test in the back of the connectors.
J1 pins 1,4,5 = 12 volts in.
J1 pins 2,3,6 = ground.
J2 pins 1-8 = +5 volts.

Gottlieb Alpha-Numeric Latched Driver Problems. This information is regarding the 20 digit alpha numeric Gottlieb display MA-1361. It uses a Fluorescent latched driver at U9 (TI5812N or UCN5812F or A6812). This chip is obsolete and difficult to find. Failure mode is a blank display of both 20 digit tubes, and F5 fuse at transformer module A12 (1/4 amp) is blown.
If you try to play the game it most likely will have strange behavior and even reset during play. Display board U9 may be hot to the touch. This is even with F5 blown. The reason for this is U9 is a dual voltage part. With F5 blown the 47vdc is not present, but the +5 volts is. The common failure mode of this device is a short internally between pin 1 (Vbb) and pin 14 (Ground). This creates excessive current draw to the four diode bridge CR1-CR4 on the display board.
The reason this problem plays havoc with the game is this. With this chip shorted internally, the +5 can be affected and draw more current. This is why the chip can be very warm to the touch. Since the power supply is not self-adjusting, the +5vdc will drop, depending on the amount of current through U9 to ground, causing CPU resets due to low 5 volts. This happens especially during a power increase from coils operating.
