My Bigfoot won't turn it's head. I found this thread and checked for continuity. Everything's checks good. From the photo, I'm assuming the capacitor C2 has leaked so I plan on getting one to replace it. Should I check anything else before doing that? Do you think from the photo it's the capacitor?

Thanks!

Also, if I need to replace the capacitor, should I replace with the same type or is there a better one to use to avoid this problem?

I'll go ahead and replace the capacitor and see if that solves it.

I replaced the capacitor but Bigfoot still doesn't work. I checked continuity on the points mentioned above and all checks out. How do I test if it's the motor?

Awesome, thanks Tony. I'll send him a PM. That's a much better price than I found online.

Sp, I replaced the board. Now Bigfoot works in Test, All 3 tests correctly, but it will not work in game. When you turn the game on, Bigfoot will not reset. I tried moving the head by hand while the game was off but it won't reset when I turn the game on.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Seems like my Bigfoot isn't getting enough power. It seems slow in test. Maybe the machine isn't getting enough power to drive the mech? Not sure where to check next.
