Game does not boot
Repair of: Pac-Man(Namco (Midway license) 1980)
Repair Type: PCB
Status: Fixed
Contributed by: Arcadenut
Symptom:
Game will not boot.
   
Solution:
The game actually did boot, it's just that you cannot make anything out.  Turns out that the EPROM at 5E was bad. Replaced that and we now have a working Pac-Man.

Diagnostic/Repair Steps

 
The following steps were taken to either diagnose or to repair the PCB/Part/Game: 
Using the Two Bit's ABC Diagnostics board

After checking the voltages, I hooked up the Two Bits ABC Diagnostics board (http://www.twobits.com/ABC/) to see what I would get.
 
Well, I got a screen not listed in the documentation.  So I suspect it's probably a RAM issue.  Will be contacting ABC to verify.
