Been having some strange issues with a Twilight Zone and decided to start at the begining by checking the transformer jumper when i noticed some cut, taped and butchered wiring. I can't seem to find in the manual the proper wiring for 110v 60hz anywhere. This may or may not have been the cause of a Pinsound board failure which i am afraid will do the same to the replacement and at more then $300 a pop i'd like to be sure. All the voltages check out ok on the test points but the input voltages on J102 seem a little high.

I see this but it doesn't really tell me how to wire for said 120v?

The Pinsound board gets power from the supply not directly from the transformer. We put a new Pinsound board in and while the game was in attract mode we heard a very loud "POP" come threw the speakers and shut it off right away. I believe its' 2x18Vac plus the 5Vdc and ground. Not sure though...
