MVS Board COMPLETLY F'D UP HELP!!

Shapermc · May 21, 2002

I GOT ALL MY OTHER PROBLEMS SOLVED!!!!

So any ways I need Help!

In the process of all my other escapades I managed to short the circurty (spelling bee king) of the jamma connector. the ciruit board where there should be a connection going is blown(see diagram below), I can tell because I can see where it went and now it is a brown toasty line. Can I connect this some other way. Can I jump it by soldering a wire from one connector to another? Can I send this to someone to do for me? JMKurtz this sounds like something you can do.

jumping a wire should be fine
aslong as nothing else gets touched by it

or
hehe
learned this one from unlockinf AMD chips

you could try some of the stuff they use to repair rear window defrosters <img src="graemlins/loco.gif" border="0" alt="[Loco]" />

sounds wierd but its conductive and works good <img src="graemlins/glee.gif" border="0" alt="[Glee]" />

Where would I obtain that Snoturtle?

snoturtle · May 21, 2002

you can usually find it at larger auto parts stores
like pep boys or whatever
the smaller ones don't always have it

I had a similar problem with my 6 slots, the 12 volt track gets quite hot and may develop carbon build up leading to intermittent contact.

Got around it by using copper braid ( desoldering wick) It comes in various widths, get the one the same width as the track.

Will send a piccy.

Sorry its not the 12 but the 5 volts, there are two tracks in parallel.

Thanks TTooddddyy

That helps alot. but on that pic, dosen't that give the connectors a loose connection after a couple insertions?

ttooddddyy · May 23, 2002

I havent had any problems, the braid is very thin. Doesnt open out the jamma socket.
Ive plugged/ unplugged dozens of times, it still looks fine.

Shapermc · May 23, 2002

Ok, Thanks it looks different on the pic.

Shapermc · May 28, 2002

Snowturtle, that repair stuff dident work (your right it seemed like it should have but dident)

I still need help. If I took a pic is there any one that would be willing to fix it with a solder if I pay shipping?

The problem is that the picture is VERY unstable. I am almost positive that this is the problem. The monitor works with other Jamma boards so I know that that is not it any other recomendations.

I also put a minty MS2 up for trade for a new PCB in the selling forum if anyone wants to take a look at it. thanks!

Hi
if you want send me a pic and I will take a look at it

Shapermc · May 29, 2002

GODDA#N IT!!!!!
Snowturtle I will email you the pics, but the ground is not the only problem!!!!!!

The picture is unsteady and is divided into section!!! It is not the harness I tryed another board this is not the problem!

F$%K F$%K F@#K I want my neo!

This is seriously making me depressed!

Does any one have a online wiring diagram? It is a model MVH-1F

PLEASE HELP! <img src="graemlins/help.gif" border="0" alt="[Help]" />

Shapermc · May 29, 2002
