I think I had posted this request before. Looking for someone local to the GTA (I am in Thornhill), that has a WMS Sys6/7 machine. Need to plug in my sound board for Barracora Sys 7 to run the board test to make sure it is the board that is malfunctioning versus connector/other board.

Currently I get no sound but the machine boots and runs.

REVISED: The game seems to have several errors and doesn't startup normally. Would it be advisable to just send out all the boards to be examined and gone over? Is that unnecessarily costly?

Thanks,

Warren

I've got a BK your more then welcome to test it out on

Well Adam, if I am ever able to get out of the office before 7 and make it to another TOPL meet perhaps I can give it to you to plug in and hit the test button and see if it is alive or not. Would that be ok?

Thanks,

If the board is not making ANY sounds at all, did you try cranking the volume pot all the way up to see if you get ANY static/noise from the speaker?  This verifies the amplifier section is working.  If you've done this and get nothing it's most likely the TDA2002 amplifier that has failed. (unless there is no power getting to the sound board)

If you do get that static/hum when you crank the volume pot and you still get nothing when you press the test button on the sound board, then it's time to bust out the logic probe / scope.

Did crank volume pot and did get a low buzz and the amp transistor gets warm. I havent a clue about testing pins etc. Want to try test in another machine to be thorough then probably send off to Mindstorm.
