So after transporting my perfectly working WPC (Demo Man) I'm having some issues. I've been looking through the pin wiki but I'm still pretty inept at deciphering it all. http://www.pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Williams_WPC#Power-On_LEDs_and_Sound_Tones_.28Bongs.29

When I turn it on:
-No DMD Display
-No GI lights
-One sound "bong"
-LED D19 Doesn't turn on
-LED D20 Doesn't turn on/flash
-LED D21 Does flash???
-LED D5 is off
-Also I couldn't tell what the normal state is on the Auxiliary 8-Driver board LEDs, but both LED1 and LED2 are on.

Also if it helps, when I turned it on previously:
-DMD was displaying random "fragments"
-I think the GI was off but some Aux Driver powered lights were on
-All flippers were held in the on position
-Fuse F112 was blown (but it is stable now)

Hoping its just something to do with either the Rom chips or a transistor or something?

Something's wrong with the 5Volt supply,
-Check connectors on J101, J114 (PDB) and J210 (CPU)
-LED 5 is only lit when coindoor is closed
-since it happened after transport, check all ribbon-cables as well.

That did it, thanks! I think the culprit was the KAHR daughterboard I have installed on J210. Also the U5 chip was a little loose as well.

Dang, solved already? I was sort of hoping we would get some more of Zaza's excellent schematic diagrams as part of your troubleshooting process.

Anyway, glad that you solved it so quickly.

Yeah, I should have made a picture for it to make it more clear

Zaza, you forgot to point at J101 as well.

Needs more lens flare. Better call JJ Abrams.
