Also, look about the tip to switch it on/off a few times in a row with the door open.

Quoted from YVRstormtrooper:Thank you all for the advice...but I'm still a bit confused.
IC11 is the first pic below and CMOS RAM (according to the schematic I found) is the second pic.
So is the suggestion that I replace the batteries and the CMOS RAM with an NVRAM battery eliminator?[quoted image][quoted image]
You are right, my bad! Looked at the wrong schematic!
Ic19 it is indeed!
Hmmm there should be a white switch in the cabinet.
Looks like yours was removed. Try to locate the wires and disconnect them (as there must be a hack made by someone) so that the game will think the door is open.
Don't have my gorgar at home to give you the colors of the cables but must be in your many loose cables by the door.
