Got a Jokerz project. Had battery acid damage but not too bad. Got it to go into attract mode once our twice using the cpu test button, but wouldn't play a game. Removed battery holder and replace with a remote holder. Cleaned acid with vinegar solution. I now have blinking diagnostic led (no error detected) and blanking circuit is correct. But the 5v led is not lit. I.checked voltages off the supply and they look good. 4.95 with no load, but down to 4.9 when connected to cpu and nothing else. Display has a few digits showing and seems to be responding to buttons on the coin door but I can't read what it says. No sound. If I.push the sound button on cpu, I get constant tones. I am getting 4.9v on the cpu at the test point and at a resistor near the 5v led, (4.86.or so). All other voltages on the power supply look good.
Had anyone ever seen the diagnostic led blink like normal but then no 5v light? Can't seem to find anyone who has had that issue. Hard to tell if it's a logic issue or a power issue at this point. Figured I would stay by hooking it up to an external supply (really needed to build one so this is my excuse) to see if the 5v light would work then. If not, I'm guessing it must be a logic issue?
