hi, I'm in need of some help with my last action hero pinball machine. I have a problem with what I think is a DMD problem. I have a blank display but my playfield seems fine, it all lights up and the coils, crane etc do their usual start up routine, it is normally set on free play but if you try to start a game it does its declined phrase"not to be". Firstly I checked all fuses( unless there is one hidden), I checked under the playfield for problems but nothing apparent. I also tried to scroll through audit and noticed the flippers do work also. I spent quite a bit of time on the power supply board where I did repair a burnt CN1 pin 12, which I am pretty sure was my other ongoing problem of random game resets, everything else seems to be fine though. I am getting 4.94 volts on the dmd controller board. I have spent many hours scouring the whole machine for something that I am missing. I am only a beginner/novice at electronics but I am generally pretty adaptable and have the time to learn, just from this problem I have learnt so much about my machine which I'm sure will help me in times to come. Yes I know you're all thinking just take it to a pinball repairer( at least that's what my missus is saying), but I am 3 hours from my closest repairer and I only have a sedan so that's the last resort. It just feels like it is so obvious, I have downloaded clay's repair pages and have searched the internet tirelessly and have become an alcoholic so I can stop thinking about when I go to sleep. I would appreciate any help
