I'm a novice with Williams boards and would appreciate help is getting this working. The boards are clean and original. I plan to replace connectors (even though I think they are currently not the problem), but I haven't ordered any parts yet.

When I turn on the game it comes up immediately in test 04 and the MPU LED's both flash once and both turn off.

Then if I press the MPU self test button (on the MPU), the LED's turn solid on. If I press the self test button again and again after a few times the LED's eventually flash twice and then off. After that, I am able to use the test button on the coin door...

Using the coin door test button I am able to test all the displays, and they all pass working.
Using the coin door I am also able to test all the feature lights, all the solenoids, and the sounds. Everything all tests fine.

But when I restart the game, it comes up stuck in test 04. What could the problem be?

Run through that page. It has helped me a lot track down issues.

it's booting into audit mode, so:

batteries are bad/not installed/not providing power to the 5101

5101 is bad

memory protect is bad

sometimes you can get it into attract mode by flicking the power switch quickly

Just got this board to boot! I had bad 5101. I actually replaced it earlier this morning and had same problem. Replaced it with another and fixed the problem. Guess I had a bad 5101 spare!

Thank you all for the responses!
