Guessing I am having some kind of 12v board issue. Just not sure. My Stern Playboy attempts to boot. I see the DMD display for 1 second and go blank. At that point I can't start a game. I have checked all fuses. I'm assuming board issue. I'll see about posting a video. Any help is welcomed.

Check the lower left plug on the top cpu board. Push in on the wires with the game off with a screwdriver. Then turn it on and see
