I had this error come up a while back, where I would get this error on start up, followed by a credit dot, and no sound playing when you started the game. The sound would always start after ball 1 drained, and the sound was perfect from ball 2 onward.

I finally got around to getting some new ribbon cables, to see if that might have been the problem.

After replacing all the ribbon cables, the credit dot went away, and the game audio started playing on ball one. This last about an hour, and then the problem returned.

Anyone know what this might be?

Quoted from YeOldPinPlayer:

Thanks for the link. I'm thinking it has something to do with the connectors.

It's just weird that the audio only doesn't play during the first ball.

Has anyone else had this exact issue?

Hey Wiz
It seems like whenever I have seen this error before it is usually traced back to one of the socketed chips not making a good contact. Either one of the sound board Eproms or the ASIC on the MPU board. Removing and reseating usually helps. Some good info from Ed at GPE about the ASIC here. https://www.greatplainselectronics.com/Information.asp?region=139
