I am turning to the pinside group for some trouble shooting expertise.

The easiest way to describe the issue is by video.

.

My game either doesn't boot at all even though it looks like it is trying to (video link), or in the middle of a game it reboots and looks like the video link.

I have re-seated all the connectors and the game rom. None of the fuses are blown. Please advise on what is causing this and how to fix it.

Thanks!

Thanks LTG. I went down the list of what I can do and wasn't able to identify the issue. Guess it's time to call a professional.

Quoted from pinzrfun:

I see you're in TX.....by chance is this happening now that your air conditioning is probably kicking on? Have you checked the wall voltage? I doubt that's it, but stranger things have happened.
When it happens during gameplay, are you flipping both the flippers at the same time (drawing a load) or does it just happen?

I did try a different outlet on a separate breaker. Didn't work. Appreciate the out of the box thinking.

Quoted from Thor-NL:

Have you tried reseating the connectors? Specialy the Z-connector?

Yes. Didn't work.
Thx!

Quoted from PinballManiac40:

And J101, J102, J114, and J115.

Yes. Didn't work.
Thx!

Pin_guy,

Thanks for teaching me how to use a voltmeter offline. Here are my results.

1) What was your voltage measurements at TP2 on the Power Driver board?
4.99

2) What was your measurement at pin 32 of the game ROM, or on pin 2 (center pin) of U10?
4.75

3) If you remove all connectors EXCEPT J210 from the CPU board, does it give you the same reset sequence as seen in your video or does D20 blink normally?

It blinks normally.

Update: The daughterboard got me up and running...still digging for the root cause. Tech coming soon.

Thanks everyone!
