Hi folks,

I'm just finishing up my Speedball upgrade to Crack. Everything has checked out, except when I do my last voltage check, the two LEDs closest to the power transformer on the large board do not light. Voltages, then, on OA and OB are in the 120V range and B+ is around 200V... so a bit too high. Any suggestions on where to look?

best,

Nick

What are all the voltages on all the PC boards?

Hi Paul,

On the small board, the voltages are as follows:

IA: 202
OA: 73
IB: 201
OB: 72
B-A-B: 0

The big board voltages (I tested again):
OB: 127
OA: 114
G (predictably): 0

Thank you!

Nick

I found the problem:  I failed to solder one hole around the large resistor. Now it’s all good!

Thanks all!
