Hi Rob
Thanks but i did plug the harness in right. Both harnesses had a round
sticker on the back and my Ms Pac did as well. I don't really know how to
do much testing with my voltage meter. Like i said i was trying to take the
easy way out. I did put the 2 boards back into my machine and got the same
thing. Who knows maybe something happened in shipping. I am not mad just
out 2 boards and sitting on my thumbs now.
