The problem with fixing old gun game boards is they require unusal
voltages and wiring. So we 'could' test it, but we would charge up to
one hour for setup...of course you are certain that the control
circuitry is working correctly. You have tested the speaker to make
sure it works (noise), and check that if you try to over-ride the
control line for the amp it is still silent...
One other problem with these old single sided boards is hairline cracks
that break traces...
It should cost less than $200 to service...at least at our shop. Might
take a few months though - backlogged.
