Title: Ms. Pac-Man Arcade cabinet help Post by: shaggy on June 04, 2015, 02:10:19 PM A co-worker of mine has a Ms. Pac-Man arcade cabinet that is sick. The power supply is fine, the unit plays blind. He says he is getting a high voltage shutdown, all the troubleshooting seems to point to the monitor flyback transformer. Could this be the cause of his problem and where can he find a flyback for this machine to see if this is the issue. Thanks.

I'll touch base with him tomorrow to have him chime in if he doesn't see the thread. Title: Re: Ms. Pac-Man Arcade cabinet help Post by: Crabmaster2000 on June 05, 2015, 07:46:54 AM So the game is running, you guys just have no image on the monitor?

I believe there isn't even the monitor "glow" from it. Title: Re: Ms. Pac-Man Arcade cabinet help Post by: shaggy on June 05, 2015, 09:45:34 AM Tynstar has a machine but not sure if he knows repairs.

Does it light up when the system is getting power?

If there is no light on that tube behind the monitor it's definitely not getting power. Try the obvious first such as pulling that piece out (the entire section comes off easily from the rest of the monitor) and check the pins. If they are all accounted for and in good health then start checking fuses and capacitors for issues.

I'll have him check the monitor. |
