Hello all! Glad to have found pinside.com! I know all the horror stories about Atari pins, and I have read as much as I could find on the net about them. The Airborne Avenger pin I have is in fantastic shape, with no playfield wear, and the backglass is perfect. Minor chips on the cabinet, but nothing major. The person I got it from stated it worked fine until he moved. Once he unloaded the pin at his new house, it didn't work. What it does do upon powerup is fire all the solenoids at once, the score display/playfield lights flash, and it beeps. Nothing else happens, all the lights go off except the backlight. I think I may have a power supply problem. There is a 4 pin plug coming from the PS going into the MPU board, and when I check that plug with a DMM, it shows 0.02v or nothing, depending on the pin. If the board isn't getting power, why does everything happen at first power on? All fuses have been checked, and I do have the user manual. I just don't know how I should be testing the power supply. If anyone could help, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
