Hi gang
Does anyone know why my hook reboots during gameplay and sometimes before you even launch the first ball!
I replace the CPU with a rottendog about 5 months ago for a "no boot" issue and has been working good till now
The blanking led goes out first then 5v and pia led are on, then only blanking and 5v led on

Check power board fuse clips, connector header solder backside of board and female connector pins in wiring harness connector housings.

Definitely sounds like a voltage dropping out on the power supply. Along with the above suggestions, new capacitors may be needed.

Thanks so much I will do all that when I look at machine tomorrow
So the problem sounds like a bad connection on power supply board?
The 5volt LED seems to be on at all times

I just had the same problem in my JP, turned out to be the CN1 plug on the power board, replaced the pug and socked and its good as new.
