Funny...Chris has my JP PS board right now. My issue goes back a while when I noticed the coils were all weak. Tried everything I could think of and nothing fixed it. One day, game wouldn’t boot and I found the game was missing 5v.
I knew it was probably c2 but to rule other items out on the board, I went ahead and ordered a rotten dog replacement. I’ll be damned...as soon as I put it in and fired it up, the ball shot out of the left scoop like a bat out of hell and the ball hasn’t required multiple fires from the VUK since installing the rd.
At least it’s playable now and I’ll prob sell the rotten dog after I get the original back or provide the original along with the game if I ever sell it. Hope you get yours worked out!
