Hello all you fine folks!! Well I've recently joined the Sys 1 club with a lovely CETK, but have sadly spent more time tinkering than playing. I've never owned a Sys 1, so still coming to terms with its operation and nuances. I've completed the obligatory ground mods, the power supply seems to check out ok, I have removed the OG battery and replaced with a remote battery. There was some repaired corrosion around this area, which I've gone over again and neatened up.
Some days it works well, other days the sound doesn't work, or only the credit sounds work. Somedays the high scores don't show, some days they do. Cables have been reseated a number of different times, no corrosion is evident on the cables/connectors. Last week it blew the 25v fuse 3-4 times and has been fine since. It seems very fickle.
Last night I was roasting a chicken on the BBQ and playing some CETK in-between, everything working perfectly. Popped out to check the temp of the chicken, came back maybe 10min later and none of the coils were working, except the ball trough. Its issues seem consistently inconsistent which has me confused as to where I should be looking.
Any ideas?
CETK (resized).jpgI was hoping you wouldn't say connectors :-/ Definitely not an enjoyable task. So no Trifurcon pins, can anyone lead me towards the correct plugs for Sys 1's, I did see someone 3D print them, is that the way to go?
Quoted from sparky672:Why replace the plastic housings when the metal pins are the problem? Pop each one out, clip off, crimp on new, and pop back into same plastic housings.
I am not as familiar with System 1 as 80, so I can't tell you specifics on Molex part numbers, which ones are obsolete, etc.
However, Docent is one source among many for System 1 Molex pins and parts...
