Quoted from sparky672:Hopefully they did more than simply remove and plug in two new boards. I am not trying to be critical as they may have done a ton of honest work, but swapping out boards takes minimal skill and effort.
Would they be willing to troubleshoot this for you under warranty perhaps?
1) Any Bally/Stern tech worth their salt would have changed out the 5V cap minimum. minimum.
2) The factory Bally SDB are pretty robust- Change out the 2 caps, a few ground mods, reflow the header pins, check the display volts to make sure they are not out of spec and you are good to go. $10 worth of parts if that.
3) Having to repin the connectors would not be a surprise, 50% of the Bally's I picked up needed the job done otherwise erratic operation is standard.
The connectors are only rated for so many insertions, time and environment takes it's toll as well.
