what would cause sound effects to stop part way through? the background music wpuld continue but hitting targets, or super charger, none of those sounds were there. even when I started a new game the effects were gone.. then of course it went into endless multi ball. when I turn it off and on it was back to normal ,but there must be something brewing.. don't know if it makes a difference but since I have had the game, whenever you turn the power off there is a loud , almost like scratching an old vinyl record noise as it goes off..?

Try reseating all the ribbon cables.

Thanks. Will try it

My Getaway was doing the same thing, and now the sound is gone completely. I’ve swapped the ribbon cables and sound board for a known working one, and checked the rom in another game. Very frustrated.

My dad had a similar issue on his Getaway. Re-seating ribbon cables fixed it.

I had a similar problem and replaced the RAM on the sound board which cleared it up.

I figured my issue out. Flaky connection at the cab speaker. Maybe not the same as yours but check and make sure all your speaker connections are sound.

I reseated the connectors and it works..but hard to know if that solved it bc it worked normally after I turned off/ on.. Time will tell
