Quoted from z28dan:He was not on wrong side of board!
The insert light LOGIC signal comes through that ribbon cable.
Yes insert light connection is j133 134 and 135, but the signal to turn them on comes through the ribbon.
I've seen games with previous alkaline damage that the corrosion got to the ribbon cable, it's male pins and under the Asic chip and holder. he's on the right track now.
Good luck with your repair.
I've been using rottendog boards for years with much success. I doubt that is your problem.
I was not disagreeing with the ribbon cable. That was my first action I asked him to take.
My comment, if you read his posting before mine, was about him measuring 7VAC, which is for GI lightning. So he was measuring voltage for the wrong circuit.
So it seems his machine was working fine before folding the backbox down and moving it to his brother's house. I was hoping for a connection problem.
