Google is your friend...
Thanks, $300 is a bit pricey. Hoping to find a used one for cheaper..
Quoted from vec-tor:LOL!!! Nothing is cheap anymore...
1990's, just the glass alone 128x16 $200.00 new.
It's the price to pay when only five games use this one display.
Oh I know I’ve bought plenty of displays in the past. I don’t plan on keeping this game long so thought I could save some money.
Quoted from Pahuffman:At least wait and see what the code update is like. It's going to be quite the overhaul from what we know.
Oh really? Didn't realize someone was doing a code update for my machine.
Quoted from sagejr:Yes, ST, TMNT, Checkpoint DE Batman and Hook are all half height displays. Checkpoint being the first DMD game... I believe Williams introduced "standard height" soon after 120X32 which was much better.
I have a Data East Star Trek, so you are saying a JP won't work?
Quoted from sagejr:No, it will not work...
Okay thanks looks like I'll have to buy a new one for $230 online..
Quoted from PinballManiac40:I have not seen any new original style plasma 128x16 DMD for sale for DE Star Trek. They have not been made in years.
Have you tested your voltages at the power connector of the DMD? Loss of any of the 3 high voltages, -110v, -100v, 62v from the power supply will cause the DMD not to light up at all.
I'll check.. After the game is on for awhile the display seems to warm up and start working some but the middle never fully works so it appears to be gassing out..
Quoted from MJW:Working X pin XPin dmd4096 rev a for sale. Fits many games. Great for a spare. Pm me if interested. Looks to be orange with filter installed.
Will this fit my data East Star Trek? PM sent..
Quoted from PinballManiac40:Post the high voltage readings from -112v, -100v, and 68v. If any are low, that also can result in what appears to be a failed DMD.
I am missing the whole display.. I ordered a new power supply too.
Quoted from Clizifer:you will need to put the display chip in for your tmnt game. if you didnt have a display to begin with you probably dont have the display chip. you can order them online tho
Okay I believe it came out of a TMNT game though.. Where is this chip at? I'll check for it.. Thanks!
Quoted from Clizifer:ya thats the one. youll have to order the display chip for your tmnt machine then it should work fine
Thanks I just ordered one..
Quoted from gdonovan:Something is wrong.
Yeah that's what I am thinking, strange.. Update... Called K-arcade and they said the chip needs to be set to spots back from the front and it will work. Did that now and it works!

Alright I've got a weird general illumination problem I am trying to figure out. Typically its a burned connector or reflow solder type fix. Not this time, I replace the power supply and redid the GI connector on the power supply. Also checked all fuses, swap lamp board with new one, redid connector on lamp board. Still no GI can't figure out what's going on.. Any thought guys?
Quoted from PinballManiac40:Lamp board?
What game?
There is a connector in later Data East games that also likes to burn on the PPB board and/or one or more of the 4 blown fuses at the top left corner of the board.
Thanks I did replace the top pin on that corner connector because it look burnt but still no luck.
17D3C1FB-41F1-4B17-A36F-405AD060284F (resized).jpegHow many volts should the General Illumination be off the transformer plug in the bottom of the cabinet? yellow/white wires.. I am replacing connector because its cooked..
Quoted from hawkeyexx:Anyone know the part number of this plug from the transformer?
Thanks
[quoted image]
That's the same wire cooked in my machine too.. What's the proper voltage on that plug? I used wing nuts it until I get the right connector for it but my GI still isn't working..
