Hey All - picked up a Party Animal, and I'm having some sound issues. Initially I had no sound, but adjusting the pot on the sound board gave me some sound back. The only thing I have is the brief "attract" music, and then the drum "tom" sound effect. Nothing else. No tunes, no in-game music or sound effects except for the single tom drum beat when various things are hit all over the game. I found another thread with the same issue, but only once response from ChrisHibler and the OP never came back.
Some notes:
* C12 is still on the sound board. I see the service bulletin saying it can cause failure of the 7533 DAC. Could that be the issue? I don't know the DAC functionality well enough to know for sure if that would cause some missing music/sounds.
* Going into Sound Test mode, I only get a single sound... the drum beat I mentioned.
* There is no cabinet speaker, only a backbox speaker. It looks like someone removed it? Can another Party Animal owner confirm there's a cabinet speaker? I see some loose wires in the cab. I don't think this would prevent the sounds in question from being played, but I found this odd. If it's missing can someone tell me the speaker rating/values so I can replace?
* Sounds Deluxe Board LED is flashing 6 times (which is normal I've read)
I'm not familiar with 6803, so I welcome all suggestions. I've reseated connectors and TP1 on the Sound Board has 5.00VDC
