Help, I put updated game eproms U1L AND U1H in my Capcom PM. It worked for a week and now it wont take a credit unless I open the coin door and turn the game off and on. And that don't always work. Sometimes I have reset the switch that's in side the coin door(but that don't work very often) One time it didn't reboot so I turned off and back on and then it worked. When I get it working it will take some credits but not work after I pay the games. And I have to try everything over again until it works. I checked the start button and its ok.
Thanks for any help Russ

My gut says board problem. Were you having trouble before changing the eproms? Have you used the diagnostics to test the switch matrix (pages 32 & 192-193) and the troubleshooting (page 38), as described in your manual?

While you're reading the manual, LOL at page 110 in the coin door problems section. "Possible cause - Cash Box filled to maximum capacity. Probable solution - 1. Check for counterfeit currency 2. Remove currency from game more frequently."

Fixed it. Took the new Marco eproms out and put in new Action Pinball eproms in. Works perfect.
