Quoted from CNKay:I am under impression that earlier sys 80 a used normally closed which caused issues. Later 80b did at some point switch to normally open. So in the lower corner of board by the driver - mpu connector area look for a solder bridge or other type of shorting mod.
Yes that is the case. The mod was never done on this cpu. The issue is, the mpu thinks it's supposed to see a closed slam switch, but the BG roms want to see an open switch. I'm just not sure what to change on the mpu to make it think there is supposed to be an open switch.
Previously I had one of the mypinballs mpu's installed that I ended up selling to an operator to get his raven up and running. He (mypinballs)put a jumper on his mpu to address this issue. In turn I got the dead raven mpu. (and ordered a new mypinballs, but it's gonna be a while) I have mostly repaired the old mpu, this is just the last issue I'm dealing with.
I hope that makes sense haha. I feel confused just re-reading it.
