I have been working on a friend's Laser Cue - Williams System 7. I thought the Sound Board - I believe it is a Type 2 Square Sound Board - was working but then I watched a video on YouTube and clearly there are sounds that are not coming out of my Laser Cue that are supposed to be there. I need to remove the Sound Board and look around. When I push the test button on the Sound Board it does play some sounds but I do not believe it plays all the sounds. First thing - Does anyone know what would cause the game to only play certain sounds - bad chip, PIA, bad connections? Also, there is a switch - 2 position dip switch - in the upper left corner of the Sound Board - Option Switches. I believe Switch 2 should be set Off and Switch 1 should be set On but I am not sure and I could not find a definitive answer on the internet or in the manual? Any help would be appreciated.

Go into sound test in diagnostics (instructions in the manual on ipdb) and make sure a unique sound is triggered for test 0 to 6. If one or more of the sound tests make no sound, check the connection between the cpu J8 and sound board J3. Look for cold solder joints on either of these connectors.

The dip switch selects:

1- sounds / notes
2 - voice / no voice (not used on Laser Cue)

Got it. Thanks. Having trouble going through the diagnostics right now because I have some of the boards out but I seem to recall that sounds only came out for tests 1 thru 3. I will check those connections.
