IS there anything I can do with this now, it was a perfect DMD, no lines out, not outgassed, it just died.. I confirmed in another game.. if not, anyone have a decent used one for sale, money is tight, I just laid out a ton on parts and repairs.. if anyone has one they are not going to use and can give me a good price, please pm me, or if someone knows someway I can save this one even better.

Thanks

Yes, I hooked up another dmd from another game, and that one booted right up, then put the dead one in the other game and dead. One was for Addams which does not seem to be a good game for a weak DMD, but the other was DM, and that one seems to bring new life to older DMD's

So you fixed the dmd itself, or t he game? I am out about 1k in parts and labor between the two, spend 260 taking both CPUs to be checked, still need an elevator opto board, 200 for one rottendog, 35.00 on a used elevator opto board, 40 to pre order a new elevator. Board, 200 for a new solder station and solder sucker as I had a crap iron and hand help sucker...now I am down a dmd so I cannot do much repair on demo without a display!

-122
-136

The repairs included parts and a ACIS chip, and the burning of a new rom.

Sorry, got confused with something else that I needed, actually it was 180 for the repairs and parts including the ASIC chip and the rom.. plus I had a socket installed to add the battery eliminator and I bought 4 U shaped opto sockets all this was 160. There were 2 other sockets replaced as well.

I took one dmd from another game and put it into Addams, and it is working, that game has an aftermarket DMD board in it from either Pinled or Pinbits, I cannot remember off the top of my head, and I honestly do not want to take the glass off the head now that it is working 100% again, my poor Demo man is going to be waiting a while for parts.. I have no idea what happened, but I had a few pinsiders offer me some decent deals on used DMD's so I have one coming to put into Demo man, I am still going to attempt to fix this one, as it was PERFECT before Addams started having all the issues..

I broke my own personal rule on this one, and it cost me, DO NOT TAKE WORKING BOARDS OUT OF WORKING GAMES TO TRY IN A GAME WITH ISSUES... I went from Demo Man down, to Demo and Addams down because of this, and lost a DMD, bought a new CPU board, spent way too much money especially at this time of year. I should NEVER have broken my own rules.... Grrrrrrrr!

Thanks for the help guys, appreciate it as always, Happy Holidays to all, especially my CARGPB brother Chris...

Ok, I just put the Babcock into Demo Man and turned it on, measured voltages on the connector of the DMD itself not the connector from the game

1. 64.5
2. 8.0
3. 4.9
4 0
5 0
6 0
7 -87.9
8 -110.4

Still trying to find somewhere with information on what I could possibly do to save this display, it was perfect, not outgassed, no lines out.. strong display, I hate to just toss it.

Thanks
