Looking at mine, there appears to be a molex connector joining the start, coin door, and test button wires with another connector. Did it come loose? Even if not, try reseating it.
EDIT: It doesn’t appear the start button goes through the same connector, but I would still try reseating all related connectors in that area. I haven’t looked at the matrix, but it could be they share a common row or column.
Sorry to hear about your woes. Now that something smoked, check all the boards over for a burnt chip. If you pinpoint the problem, that may help remedy it.
Quoted from RTS:I'll confirm with Jim at JJP tomorrow. Maybe it'll help locate the problem. My old board didn't fail like this and I suspect the damage is on this replacement I/O board.
This replacement board was someone else's refurbished board; it wasn't a new board. .
I mention it because I had a chip fry on my I/O board, and Butch was able to look at the traces and determine that a surge hit it and exactly where the surge came from. Of course, Butch isn’t there anymore, but it may help someone determine the cause.
Quoted from RTS:If I can't get it fixed, I'm planning to get buried in it.
I've upgraded the light boards to 2.0, I've swapped the original chipping Bader pf with a pristine Kruzman cc playfield, and I've got it modded to the hilt. I'm in too deep.
You’ll get it fixed. Hang in there!!!
