This is a little annoying. I've been working several WPC games that resets because one or another reason, but this is a little bit weird.
If the game hasn't been used for a while and I start it up, it usually resets when the island mech has found it's home.
After the reset, the game works flawlessly.

Connectors are nice, nothing tarnished or burned out.
It has a nice 4.990VDC +5V line.
I've read at some forums that replacing C8 solves the issue, but no dice here.

Any ideas?

The switches are OK!

ChrisHibler any ideas?

I will try replacing the power driver board with another one (and maybe the CPU board), just to rule out if there's an board issue or mechanics issue.
I'll report back to you with the results
