Unhooked all of the column and row pins from the CPU...still nothing. Nothing works. Machine fires and just pops balls out.
I unhooked 2 pins from the CPU and turned the machine on. I cant get to the test mode.Of course nothing worked. Everything else fired OK
Quoted from PinballManiac40:We are aware you cant get in test mode having the connectors disconnected. What does show on the DMD when you turn on the game?
When pins are disconnected machine turns on and runs as normal. Cycles through high scores etc.
Just put the claw and motor back together. Pin 4 which is the column row was a little burnt on the board and wasnt making a good connection. Cleaned it up as much as i could. Again this is how the cryo-board looked before.
So now with the pins connected back into the CPU I cant get back into test mode.

Like t said before I hooked up the cryoclaw board then turned the game on. Maybe something was touching? Either way the board is removed. I will order a replacement board. Thanks. Gotta find that part now.
My communication is awful. If that first quote came across as snarkey that was def not intentional.
Didnt mean replacement board meant U20. On marco and on Pinball life both say u20 is common cause of Ground Row Short https://www.pinballlife.com/williamsbally-uln2803a-switch-matrix-driver-chip.html
I havent messed with anything else except the cryoclaw which has to be completely disassembled each time I mess with it. I assume something touched. Either u20 is a couple bucks. Shipping will cost more. Thanks for the help!
Great point. I am the first to admit i dont know much about the boards. Hopefully thats the first and only thing to blow.
