Hi all
When I power up for the first time after it being off for more than say an hour or two, I get a few error codes:
1. Row 2 gnd short
2. Row 3 gnd short
3. Idol lock
The interesting thing is that the error self clears after about 15 or so seconds. After I power up I can immediately go into switch edges and see that row 2 and 3 are lit up, but you can actually watch it go away on its own. When this happens all the switches trigger and the row returns to normal status. The same is true with the idol lock... it doesn’t lock and skips over many stop points and then just starts working after you run the T14 diag test once or twice immediately after startup.
Then, once the machine is running you can power it off and as long as you power it back up within an hour or so, there are no errors thrown.
I’ve recently changed the mpu board, the POA optic board (there was a real problem with that) and even swapped out the power driver board and 8-board with no change.
I am thinking this is some type of power or transformer issue,perhaps there’s insufficient voltage somewhere that takes time to build up(perhaps a bad cap) and stabilize?
Any tips or troubleshooting advice? Thanks!
