shadow game started up with ground row short on rows 1-8. check j206 j207 no short to ground so changed the u20 chip on cpu fixed the ground row short errors but now j206 j207 row 1,2 and 5 not working. checked the cpu with logic probe (first time using one)no pulse at j206 j207 pins 1,2 and 5 then checked u20 chip pin 1,2 and 5 on the input side all read low and output side 1,2 and 5 high evrthing else is pulsing. where does the signal come from for the u20 input side? what should i check next? hard to find info on this board evrthing seems to be for wpc-89

Quoted from DUKE_WADD:

where does the signal come from for the u20 input side?

U23 is the chip that drives U20. It sometimes happen when U20 get shorted with solenoid power, also U23 blows

couple wrong chips sent and a month or so later finaly got the right parts. had to cut a 28 pin socket down to a 24 and got the right u23 chip, evrthing bench tests fine. so it was u23. is there any thing i should double check before putting the cpu back in the machine. all switch rows have bin checked for continuity to ground and all are good witch was the orignal error
